whats hard is that theres 3 wires on the oem wiring

2 that is orange into a orange clip

and one that is in a white clip

the after market signals have 2 wires a power and a ground

WHICH ONE IS POWER? i know the white is ground but which of the 2 orange ones is power?

i dont have the signal switches right now so its a bit hard to test this i jsut wanna hook everything up and make it ready for when i get the signal switches
