Wire colors - anyone have a wiring diagram?

Hey all... Just need a quickie lookup if anyone has a wiring diagram/Haynes book.

Need to know which wire in the front running lamp assembly is the positive. The wires are brown and black w/ green stripe.

Thanks!

-Matt

EDIT- Found a wiring diagram here:

http://www.mcaw.info/wds/mini/us/r50/index.htm

If I'm reading it right (the map symbols link in the diagram is broken... grrr...) then it looks like black/green is hot and brown is ground. If anyone thinks different let me know. I'll test it with my multimeter either way, but I only wanted to strip one wire.
