Headlight wiring

I purchased all new headlight assemblies from Moss Motors and am installing a new wiring harness. Headlights have 3 wires. Blue with red; blue with white and black. Black is obviously ground. Owners manual indicates blue with red is "dip filament" and blue with white is "main filament". So to the British which is hi-beam and which is low beam? Old wiring harness is out and I am installing all new wiring. TA
 
"High = white"... the other one kinda falls in place then. :wink:


For the left and right signals/sidelights, the tracer on the green wires is: "white = right".

Rhyme and association help remind the gray room which is which. :laugh:
