ground is the brown one.
use ricks methods for the others. be sure you connect ground to the proper place on the high beams (you could swap them and the light would still come on). unfortunately if the high beam assembly hit the euro bumper it would short and blow the fuse.

  That's easy! You need a multi meter or a bulb with a pig tail soldered to it or an old bulb socket and a known good bulb. Turn on the lights, ground one side of the bulb to the battery and touch the wire with the other side of the bulb. Touch each wire until it lights. Flip to high and do it again. the wire that does nothing will be ground.

    BUT, I don't know how which wire is which(ground, high and low beam).  Thanks in advance-
