And to top it off where should i conect it to (1992 sprite 1.3)

on mine i had live, earth, for the lighter. and 2 more again for the led. earth somewhere metal. live from the horn/flasher fuse on the fusebox (2nd down i think) so you can use it without ur ignition on. another wire from the 4th fuse for the led. then comes on when you put on ur lights. the ornage should be live, black earth, and yellow/black for the lighting i guess. mine had 2 earths.

i dont understand what you mean by the led hangs over, but mine was round with the led on top, so i had to put the top through first, with th led, and then squeeze the bottom part of it in, then fit the lighter socket into that. took a while of fileing and drilling.

a ppic would help =)

Firstly it's unlikely to be an LED.

Of course you can just push it in, the green collar with the lamp in it pulls off of the lighter socket. You put the green collar through the panel first and then push the socket through it which locks the assembly together and into place by engaging some lugs.
