Hi all. My name is Jim and I am new to big caravaning. How do you fix the anti flap support clip to a fibreglass van. I feel self tappers and pop rivets might not hold. Any suggestions?

As per the title the connectors have disappeared so I'm left with just wires. The ones coming from the brakes themselves are both the same colour. How do I tell which way to re-wire them?
