Wiring offroad lights Please Help
I've been reading thru like 45 threads and I still can't figure this out. I'm pretty new to wiring lights, and basically I have [2] 55 watt 12V lights that I am going to mount on my bumper. I just need the right way to wire them. If anyone could give me a list of what I need to get that would be cool. I know I need some 10 gauge wire and the lights come with a glowing switch. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Here's a diagram. You need to wire your lights this way to be legal in most states, unless you are going to keep covers on them when you are on the road.
You have the lights, and a switch. You do need 10 guage wire, a relay you can probably get form the autoparts store, a fuse holder and fuse, and some crimp connectors to make some connections.
