In the Lucas wire insulation colour use guide
Red (and red with stripes) is listed as tail lamps,instrument lamps and
side markers.
Red/white is listed as Fuse to instrument lamp switch, Instrument panel
lamps.
The TR3A's instrument lamps are wired with red/white wires downstream of
the rehostat. A point of confusion could be that the tail lamp wiring
(red insulation) connects to the front harness on the hot side of the
rehostat and the instrument lamps (red with white stripe) connects on the
down stream side of the rehostat.
Except for the error in the wiper switch circuit the wiring diagram in
the TR3A owners manual provides a good idea of what goes where.
