Different colours each side because each headlamp circuit has it's own fuse (one for RH, one for LH so that you've still got some lights even if a fuse blows).
 
Orange with blue or green stripe for sidelight (5W per side), violet with black or orange stripe for main beam, black for earth and the remaining colours (not shown) for dipped beam.
 
HTH.
