Yes, I agree, was a bit surprised. No doubt someone in here has fitted one though

Pretty sure brown will be live and white Ground. Best to check it though, Normally such colours will have a little tag on the live to denote polarity, sometimes they come off or of course may never have been any..
If you have a 9V battery around, you can probably try that to find out its polarity as most 12v marketed items are usable between 9V & 16v. Being LED it should light up no problem. Might save you having to take the seat base and panel out or having to make any temp wiring just to find its polarity on the LR battery.  _\Hennessey|Venom| F5/___

They're not the only ones, unfortunately. I've fitted quite a lot of reasonably expensive stuff that hasn't come with any instructions - most recently, Nakatanenga and Safari Equip spring to mind. I suspect that a lot of these what are really cottage industry type companies, start off as engineers and think that all of their customers are the same. Darren

These companies obviously assume that if you can afford their products, you employ a man who looks after the cars in your garage and knows how to fit them.

Wouldn't be beyond unreasonable to actually fit a connector on it (they are available)

Yes, didn’t even come with correct connectors fitted for “plug and play” which wouldn’t have been hard to do given the price. Just two bare metal wires. Hmmmm
