the lights should come with instructions on how to wire them up.

There should be self tapping screws to strap them under the car. Just connect the red wire from relay to battery and black wire or metal peice connected to the relay should be screwed into the body bare metal. The black wire from wire from the switch should be grounder too. It is simple just make sure everything is connected in a series and it gets power.

mount the relay on the firewall and run the switch wires through the wall where there is a hole cut already. If not a hole then cut one but fill the hole and the edges with goop so it wont rust or let water in.

Thanks Alot, so zap straps wouldnt be a good idea? My car dosent look all too great underneath so i was thinking instead of drilling or tapping hols, i could just strap them on. the wiring dosent sound too hard though.
