Rek-O-Kut N-33H

Please help! I have a rek-o-kut N-33H with the original tonearm and headshell. I cannot figure out the leads on the headshell. Please see the pic from the manual and also the pic from my DR500LC cart I am going to use. The color codes are different than the lead colors. Where does each one go? Thanks for all help! Can anyone tell me which color on the rek-o-kut headshell corresponds with the colors on the back of the cartridge? The rek-o-kut headshell have the original leads that are blue, brown, white and black. Thanks!

Found this in a post from @gadget73 :

brown: right +
black: right -
grey: left +
blue: left -

cartridge is probably marked as
red: right +
green: right -
white: left +
blue: left -

Probably reasonable to assume that grey=white on your headshell since the other colors match. I'd try that first at least to see if it worked.
 
Do you have a multimeter? If so use it to confirm continuity one wire at a time, that will provide you with the wiring even if someone has changed them from original….
