Default HID wiring

hi im new to this site but i am a well know regular on mkivsupra.net, i dont own a land rover (please dont flame me to much) i own a mk4 toyota supra TT

the reason i am on here is to ask for help or ideally a wiring diagram for the new shape range rover (the one with HID front lights) i am in the process of fitting the hid units to a spare set of supra headlights i have, i already have the projectors fitted and looking like factory, all i need now is to sort the wiring out, i dont need to wire up the light level adjuster i just need to find out the wire colours for the hid loom, i am using the standard range rover ballasts

all help is much appreciated

i didnt know they moved when you went around bends but thinking about it there was alot of leveling motors in the lights, all i know is they are out of the latest shape range rover vouge,

to be honest i have junked all the leveling motors anyway and have linked the units to my old manual leveling system, i would imagine you would need alot more control units and sensors to get all the self leveling working

so far i have worked out YELLOW is live and BROWN is earth, only thing i really need to find out now is what the thin purple and the thin yellow wires are for in the light loom, the rest of the loom can be junked as its for the leveling system

no hid lights don't turn when you do, thats coming out on the new jags or bmw or something like that, anyway HID=High Intensity Discharge. There the lights that are not a bright but match more the color of the sunlight, less bright but eayser to see with, any way again to wire you jus need the hid control module, if you actually have HID bulbs you will need this module, where did you get the lights from and what was included?
