As you can see most of the colours are the same, the only thing you have to watch is the orange and green wires, i wired mine up and the sidelight on the drivers side wouldnt work, the fuse was fine, everything, there is 2 orange and white wires on the drivers side headlight, one for sidelight, one for main beam, id got them wrong way round switched them over and it worked fine.

All the wires are the same so its just match the colours up, apart from the indicator wires they are different on each side, but just follow the guide as above and match the colours to the corresponding function on the headlights.

I just spade connected mine, depends how fussy you are with your car, if you do decide to spade/bullet connect them id put some vaseline on the connections and then insulation tape them up

Self levelling doesn't work on mk1.5 lamps unless you've fitted xenons

You don't need self levelling unless you have xenons. There are extra levelling sensors you'd need to fit and wire in.
