Connecting PIAA driving lights - Which wire is the high beam wire?

Hi,
I am in the process of fitting MINI specific PIAA driving lights kit to my 05 MCS and I have run into a little bit of confusion. The wiring seems straight forward except to connect the switch power wire of the PIAA light kit to the high beam wire ( I only want to be able to turn the PIAA lights on and off when high beam is on). The wiring diagram indicates "white with red dots" next to the switch power wire, except I can't find "white with red dots" anywhere in the car that I can see. There are 7 wires going into the lamp assembly and non of them are "white with red dots"
So which wire do I connect the PIAA swith power wire to? For those of you with PIAA lights can you take a picture or a detailed description exactly where to make the splice.

THanks very much in advance!

Mike

Does anyone know if these same lights can fit an R56? What if I buy the factory brackets?
