I have got myself a Hawk kit, has anyone got a photograph of which plug the wire is in?

Just follow the 2 wires from the locking switch on the door down to the right hand side of the pedals.
If i remember it was a tight spot for the plug so attached to the wires some inches before it.

Use a multimeter on the door switch or follow wiring colourts shown above.

I had the same "that surely wont fit" moment when I pulled the connector.
I'll try to find the wires further up.

Seems the wiring diagram I have is way off, the one I have has pink & pink / green, turns out those are pink / black & pink /green.
Interesting thing is though, if I get the multimeter on those wires to a live it just completes the circuit and no difference is made with the switch.

I done mine a few months ago but the kit I have is rubbish, cheap £20 kit and the receiver isn't long enough so sometime I'm standing there pressing the button about 6 times haha, think I'll get one of the hawk kits

If your having trouble I'll go out and take some pics, I wired into the door switch under the dash and I also wired in the hazards to flash

If you could take me a few piccies that would be grand, I'm thinking yours may be the older wiring though.

Thanks,
Soul.

The kit needs to earth either of those wires.
Yours being a 54 plate may have this wiring..
This is only applicable to the hardtop version with the updated dashboard 2003-2005

Thanks, you literally solved all my problems :D .
I will give this another crack tomorrow, am I right in guessing that the Blue / Red from the ignition is a permanent live feed, and the Yellow / Red will give me the hazards?

Right, the central locking is spot on and working now. Just cant find the wires for the indicators, would you have the wiring diagram for those?

Thanks,
