Can some one tell me where the loom plugs in,i trial fitted it today.To me it looks like it runs down the Lh side of the bonnet and the earth attaches to the earth point on the body behind the lights but what I can't work out is that what do with the two blue plugs,what do they plug into,is there more loom to be acquired?

They fit in line with the screen washer pump. Remove the plug from the pump, push the identical plug on your washer jet loom into where it came from, then push the original pump plug into the socket on the jet loom.
It's just a way of tapping into an ignition switched 12 volt + supply, without having to cut or splice any wires.

P.S. The wires run down the RH side of the bonnet. Left and right are always defined when looking forwards from the back of the car.

My brother was thinking along the lines of piggy backing off a feed but obviously I was looking on the wrong side.
Thank you :)

P.s That was the way I was looking at it :)
