Default Need Light Wiring Guidance/Directions

I'm installing 2 Hella 4000 Rallye Lights in between the bullbar of my Mopar front bumper. Now the directions suck - they just show the possible locations of where to mount the lights and then they show all this other junk that I don't understand because the directions show it with the diagram of a regular vehicle and not a Jeep.

So with the wiring, how do I run the wires of the lights, and what do I connect the wires to in order to get my new rallye lights working?

Any help, comments and advice and further information would be greatly appreciated.

Just wanted to add that I'm trying to install the wiring so when I pull the flood/fog light on my light switch, they'll turn on.

Did they come with a relay and a switch? Power to the relay, then to the lights, but also a wire to the switch, and back, and ground. Get the power from the battery, or big post in the fuse box. This is really confusing, somebody help.

it should come with 3 wires, ground, battery & remote

Ok, if this came with a switch and you want to use it. Ground wire should be mounted on body, battery wire and remote wire to the battery.

If you have an existing switch for a fog light (example) and you want these lights to turn on with you're turning on the fog lights. Ground wire mounted on body, battery wire to the battery & remote wire spliced to the positive wire of fog lights.

Hope this helps!
