John,
The wire with the bullet connects to the wire coming from the lamp. The
other wire is a ground wire, which should be black, and should have a
half-round terminal on the end. Connect it to one of the mounting studs for
the lamp.
Having said that, depending o your cars ownership history and its condition
otherwise (How accurately the the POs maintain the car -- any evidence of
gross stupidity?) you might want to check the lead with the bullet for
polarity -- should be ~12 volts positive -- before making the connections
and assuming the wiring is correct. (SInce there is a bullet connector on
one wire, I think it is highly unlikely there will be a problem.)
