Hi i recently brought some LED washer jets for my car but i have no clue how to wire them to the electrics, i have a renault clio 02 reg. The LEDs have a black and a red wire and the instructions just say to connect to the red and black wires of the cars side lights but i cant see any red or black wires, all i can see is light brown, dark brown and yellow on the main headlights and white ones and grey ones !!!???? what do i connect them to??

u could do it a couple ways...most the time when i install them the customer likes them on a switch so they can have these lights on with out there headlights or parking lights

i have never worked on a car like urs and can not find out any info..

if u would like to hook them up inside find a wiring diagram or see if someone knows what wire is for ur switched power from under ur dash....be sure to put a  inline fuse...and the u can add a switch and put it anywhere u would like in the car....

and as far as the ground just make urself a ground

I looked in our (the shop I work at) database and it says to connect to the light brown wire for the parking lights (side lights) for positive and create your own ground. (sand/scratch the paint away from an area and ground to the bare metal. Paint over it after attaching your ground to prevent rust. Also, make sure you fuse the positive wire (as close to the connection as possible with a fuse (5 amp fuse is perfectly fine) If you have one of those glass tube fuse holders a 1amp fuse in those is ok too (they are usually rated at 240volts anyways)

Now our information comes from the 2000 Clio, but as far as I can find out, there have not been any wire changes to it for the 2002 model.
