Default Courtesy light wiring

Need to refit the main roof courtesy light back in MY05 WRX.

There are three cables coming out of the roof lining. A blue, blue/red and black. In the courtesy light there is a green, yellow and grey.

Could someone please have a look at there's and advise which colours connect to each other.

Cheers

Is this is any help, although it should be easy to check with a multimeter (or a bulb and wire..) Black should be neg and the other two one permanent live the other switched from doors. It shouldn't cause a problem using trial and error..

Thanks mate

I can probably work out what the supply wires are without to much bother. What is throwing me is the totally different colours used in the light it self.

What it really needs is someone to just unscrew there light and check it out for me. It's two screws and about 2 mins work

Anyone help

Just been out to my 05 wrx and it's:

Black-grey
Blue-yellow
blue/red-white (..!)

Thats black/blue/blue+red from car and grey/yellow/white on lamp. For some reason mine has white where yours is green..?

How come you removed the connectors..?

Hope this helps..

BTW there may only be two screw but their bloody long FFS..!
