Interesting factory pic Tony.  There seems to be nothing proided to hold the wires up , on top of the taillight on the passenger side? ..i.e. no clip shown?.

Yea I noticed that also, there isn't any clips there. I've run my harness runs under the lights as that's how the harness wanted to lay. If that makes sense.

Much appreciated for the reference pics Col,Tony,so it seems the wiring just loops under the buckets and in to the tail lights .

Going by that workshop manual pic it looks like the wiring runs along the top ,and if that's the case the bulb wires must loop over the buckets and into the sockets?

I agree Paul, but I've learnt that the books pictures aren't always correct.
See the clips in Col's photos on the lower part of the housing?
