from memory

its positive from the light unit to negative to the door pin switch

and negative from the light unit to Red/white wire that runs down the chassis of the car under the long trim..

This is still a job a haven't yet got around to doing on mine. My Highline door cards have the red reflectors instead of the half red, half clear puddle lights so i managed to bag some from a mk4 at the breakers to be swapped over in due course.

wel i won them at last min. i was looking on ebay as i was bored and though hmm, lets see what comes up and they were on for £30 + £20 delivery but was on bids, i waited for last 10 seconds and droped £30 bid in and won them :evil:
anyway he sent them on wednesday and i recieved them after i left work yesterday (friday), wife texts me saying a big brown sh!te box is here for ya. anyway they were abit dusty. i ripped them apart and started cleaning them and took me half hour to clean each door card. will be wrapping the door pull handle in carbon wrap soon. will upload pics.
