On Xaties 76 the PO before Ronin10 used rear side markers from a Rabbit. Have new bulb holders and lenses. Thought it would be plug and play. Except they were never hooked up.just some wire dangling. Funny, I've never noticed. Just assumed they did. Anyways.

Didn't find what I'm looking for doing a search. I have a Bently but I can't figure it out exactly using diagram.

So what I need to know is.
What type of of connectors are used on bulb holder to where they ground and power.
(Need to know what to ask for at the store)
What proper color wire to use.
Where do they get power and ground. I believe taillight IIRC

If someone knows of a simple wire diagram I could use for reference would be great. Or just a link I could use.

I know. Silly easy stuff. Just looking to eliminate back and forth to the store and guess work. Thanks guys.

Here ya go, thisbshould get you started for what colors and from where. You'll have to look at the markers for what size clips (hint it should be 1/Cool

I used nylon nuts and bolts to secure mine to the body of the bus
