Default head light wires

I bought my headlights from bolt on bits. There are four wires: green, red white and black. So that's head, dip, side and earth. Can anyone tell me which is what?
Thanks in advance

Had this problem myself. Work out which one the earth is, it will be connected to the casing, connect this to ground (-). Then just put a live feed individually one at a time on the remaining wires and you can work it out by which bulb lights.

Thanks wylliezx9r.
I did that and if anyone has the 7" lights from Bolt on Bits the clours are:
Black = Earth
Green = Dip
Red = Main
White =Side
Hope this helps someone
