Terry,
The two blue wires don't have any crimp fittings on them, they look like
they've been cut and stripped. They do loop through the plate with the
'long screw thingy' like you said. The green wire has a spade crimp and the
black has also been cut. They go into the centre of the back, there is no
grommet but it's probably just fallen off at some stage. If you can give me
some ideas i'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.
