How do I connect front side light wires to the harness? The head light on the left is the old one and the one on the right is the new one, the side light has the old wiring, I know that the brown wire is ground but where does the hot wire connect to since the new head light connection isn't compatible to the side light?

Dear Mr Henderson
Open de side light connector to see the colour of the positive lead on that connector. Then find the same cable colour on your 6 pin female connector and the main headlight and make a derivation for your side markers.
Most probably the colour of that cable is gray/red or gray/black

Open there

Dear Mr Henderson
As you gave me your old wiring harness for free just paying for the freight, I can make you a plug and play solution for your case for little money
Write if you need that

That sounds good, I'll give it a shot, thanks.

Here is what I did, not the best but I think it will work.

Dear Mr Henderson
My approach, without splices will be something like shown on picture below
1. One male 6 pin end connector wil match the signals on your harness
2. The second female 6 pin connector will match your actual headlight which I understand is different than the original.
3. From the 6 female connector there will will be a soldered derivation from the actual pins to feed your fender lights with a 2 pin female connector
Below a picture of what it will look like more or less
Best regards
