The plug is not there ...you can buy the kit from Rimmers as shown in the How to.

and if you check the how to, is clearly shows the location that the purple plug goes into..I simply used a Blue one from a scarp car as shown

the Orange slate wire should be in the area of the passengers kick plate...but to get that bit of it live you need to connect the other end of it...that is the bit that needs to go into the engine bay fuse box ...and that is what I did using a blue plug rather than buying the one from Rimmers

hope I made that clear

yes I appreciate where it is under the engine fuse box found that .. where does it come out .. behind the passenger fuse box? or in the boot?

I cant really tell which socket you have plugged it into on the back of the fuse box from the pic lol

ill take a pic of the back of the fuse box in a min maybe you can point it out explicitly

I have one of the blue plugs well several

I could not see them on rimmers

The Orange slate wire goes from the engine bay fuse box and will be around the Passengers side kick plate or the fuse box area if you prefer

and you will find the proper wiring link lead kit on Rimmers...not the blue one I used ...I got that from a scrap car a sit already in the fuse box

if you read through the how to
http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...fitting+towbar

near the end it shows the like lead (a purple plug ) fitted in the location of the engine bay fuse box





so to get the electrics working you needs to find the Orange slate wire inside the car ...connect a wire from there to the feed supply of your relay in the boot

engine bay fuse box connect the orange slate wire to the fuse box..using my method or the proper link lead as shown in the how to...and also fit a fuse in the engine bay fuse box

that will get you the lights working from the black 12N socket

The Grey 12S socket will need a wire run from the Battery via a split charge relay ..or at least I would run a separate wire
