RE: wiring?
alright, you're gonna need a toggle switch. run both power wires to the toggle switch, and from the toggle switch, run one to your battery. you can ground both lights on the bolts that hold your bumper on. i did this with a set of foglights and it works beautifully.

thanx. What about if i grounded it to the bumper bolt like you sed but instead of running the power to the batterey, how about running it to the fuse box, wrapping the aire around the fuse and sticking the fuse bak in?

Then the lights would ALWAYS be on, until the fuse burnt, depending on which side of the fuse is the hot blade.
If they're blue strobes, you do NOT want them running all the time, or else you'll be busted for imitating an officer.

You _could_ use a fuse in the box, but then you might start burning it, or causing other circuit issues... Don't skimp on wiring, you could burn things down.
Wire it to the battery with an inline fuse to your switch, then from the switch to the light.
