Lucas / BS / Land Rover standard wiring colours

Land Rovers and many other British cars use the “BS-AU7a 1983 Colour Code for Vehicle Wiring” or some variations of it.

Thanks to Monkie for posting this on LR4x4.

There's also a PDF on Autosparks website if you want something printable: AutosparksBSCC.pdf

A solid colour is from a supply to a switch and a striped colour is switch to component. I have used the standard lucas colour code:
