do you not have a meter? you can get them for about £2.50 from maplins?

If not dab one of the wires against the bodywork quickly, if it sparks it's +ve :D
 
Don't you ever look in your haynes manual...;)

Take out (or get a spare) 12v bulb, stick it on the wires, this will tell you which is the positive...

I think the one with the stripe is the power, but don't quote me on it...lol

no haynes for me.... :( ... not to sure how a bulb will tell me what is the positive or not :S

A bulb will only work one way, so if you connect a bulb to the two wires it will light up, if not, you have the wires the wrong way round...

You should get it soon, i packaged it up but forgot to post it...it went yesterday.

The one with the white strip is the positive...

I'm sure you will be able to resist the temptation ;)

And dont worry if i have got it wrong, the lilliput has a built in safety thingy, so if you do connect it up wrong, no harm done :)
