It’s plastic and all glued together. Looking inside as much as possible, the black wire seems to be connected to the light strip and the red one to a small metal piece inside which makes me think that red is earth right? Will it work for now without an earth and only the black wire connected while I order new lights or wait for a replacement from eBay?
It's simple stuff. Try and prise open the lens and you will probably have that led strip come out with one wire attached.
It will be clear where the other one came from.
Solder that back on or get someone to do it for you.
Reassemble it and wire it up.
If the connections don't match just snip the off and get some universal press fit connections.
