Default is the green/white or black strip wires positive or negative wires?

Hello, i am referring to the wiring in the headlights. Is the green with either a black or white strip indicate that its positive or negative? I am pretty sure it is positive, but wanted to check with you guys. I am currently swapping my halogen lights (05 base) to the new 06 xenons. Wish me luck and if anyone knows how to wire this let me know. I am doing it as we speak (took a coffee break) ;-)

I dont recall on the headlights specifically as it has been awhile since Ive had mine open. But as a general rule of thumb for Nissan. Green wire with a black strip is almost always NEGATIVE. White wire with almost any color strip is almost always POSITIVE. Remind me what colors you have in there going to the bulbs both from the ballast and to the ballast and Ill help you out.

I'm doing the 05 base to 06 xenon swap and i am in the process of making the taps and connectors. Wish me luck!!

The blinker wire in my halogen headlights had two wires, black and green/black strip..... But the 06 headlights have three, black, green w/black strip and blue. Have any idea what the blue wire is for? I'm not hooking it up cause i have no idea where it would go on my 05 base harness.

Black Is Negative And White/green Is The Hot One To Switch It
