What colours *are* they?

According to Clausager the rocker on the right is for the map light.  The 
Leyland Workshop Manual shows red/green from the main lighting switch to the 
map light switch, red/purple from there to the map light, and black from the 
light to ground.  That was for the 70 model year (4 fuses).  For the 69 and 
earlier (2 fuses) the components were the same but the colours were red, 
red/green and black respectively.  For 71 on the map light was replaced by 
the courtesy light with purple, purple/white and black wires.
