The joy of electical wiring.

The Joy of electrical wiring when you are colour blind.
I have just spent a "happy" 4 hours putting my wife's Honda Nighthawk back to-gether after repairing a cracked/broken mounting for the tail-light/brake light assembly. You would not think it would be so ******* difficult to replace the seven wires back in the right place.

Due to my various disablities tagging wires is not an option.
