Is that for the front? Cause the front does not have red in them, afaik. However, the 4 wires are indicave of a multi-coloured LED system. Basically, 1 Ground and 3 each for the RGB. Try each one and see what colours they produce. If all else fails, try connecting all of them at once to the same source.
They may need some sort of driver circuit to get to display white, but normally RGB isn't used to create white by itself, it'll drive you nuts everytime you blink or move your line of sight.

yes these are the DRL's led only
i will click the pics tomorrow and post it
i tried all the possible ways i could do
secondly ,they have a lens type cover on led so i broke one after that to check it and i found the red part was glowing from the sideways not from the middle part of the led's
There was no other color i found glowing except this
if anyone knows the wiring diagram ,please post it or describe it

There are no white LED's. They are made to look white by using either tri-luminous devices that mix red, green, and blue to yield white. There is another technology, especially used in automotive lighting that uses a red LED to excite a phosphor that emits white light.
It looks like you have peeled the LED's from the housing. That is why they are red. No phosphor.
Good Luck.
