It should be red and white but chances are the white bit has just gone yellow after 20years in an engine bay :lol:
i aint started it sat in the seat yet so aint seen no lamps mate
il check tomoz and also put testers on it and report back :)

There's no spade connectors on the voltage regulator, that bit sticking out the top is just a protective cover on the brushes ;)
