Hi yellodisco
Must admit they don’t look to bad to fit, remove bumper and either wire into light clusters or towing socket electrics, personally, I think wiring into the 12n towing circuit connector looks the best way forward
12N/ 12S Grey connectors are situated as u look at the boot in the LH side locker , so wire nearly everything into ur 12N connector then pick up the reverse light feed from the 12s connector
I fitted a small fuse box and 12s socket for my CTEK , pic below , still have some spare crimp terminals to add the extra wires into the connectors for these rear bumper lights
Maybe someone has done it a simpler way , but looking at its just my personal preference
Hope that helps and still have the wiring PIN numbers/ colours so if u do go that route and get stuck more than happy to share the info
As always , a team effort from the fantastic members here
Ps, hope this may also help , as a side note if u haven’t got a 12s towing socket to be utilised for a charging point for the CTEK, ( located in the hallway ) I also fitted a connector to the front of the house to make life easier
If the towing socket looms haven’t been connected to the ends of the grey connectors u should find this fitting on the end of both 12N and 12s sockets , so u can then use it along with the crimp terminals to connect to it

Many thks
May i ask a Daft question please , would it be better to fit a switch for those rear bumper reflector lights for MOT purposes plse or is it the case that lights must work if fitted
As I also see they do the lights smoked so would blend into the bumper better
many thks in advance

I just found the set of bumper lights I bought and never got round to fitting...
Does anyone want them? I paid very little for them so if anyone is able to cover the postage plus a beer I will send them to you! If not, they will sit in my garage for ever!
