Did you already purchase the lights? Some lights come pre-wired and when I had a set of those I just cut the main power wire and had it run through my DRL fuse. I hated the pre-wired ones. What kind are they? It might help if everyone knew. I'm not sure cause I don't know how different it is between brands. Another thing to know is do you want them to run through your high beams? This meaning that they only work when you turn on your high beams. There is a way to avoid this cause there was no way I was gonna do that considering my low beams a 10 times brighter than my highs. Give us more info and this will be an easier question to answer, IMO.

Any truck shop, dealership, or car audio place will install them for you... They'll charge you 2 hours labor for it, though.

If you bought the kit new, it's peanuts, as all you have to do is read the instructions

Usually, there's a red wire with a fuse in it... That goes to the battery.
Black gets grounded to the chassis.

If it's a little bit higher quality, it should've come with a relay, in which case you run a wire from the switch to the relay... Much better and less wires to run that way.

The wiring for that came with my PIAAs was not only complete/easy, but made great too.
