You wire them up to your stock turnsignals. Your stock turnsignal lights have 3 wires going to them. One is parking light Positive, one is turn signal positive, and the third is the ground they both share.

The ground SHOULD be black or brown, and the other two should be some color with a stripe. if you don't have a multi-meter or test light, you will have to guess on the other wire. You've got a 50% chance.

What I did was measure the opening I needed by matching the back of the marker with a coin (mine was a quarter) then I pulled out my dy-grinder and went to town when the hole was cut I painted over the cut metal with touch up paint to prevent it from rusting I ran wires up to my stock turn signals and sodered them together and then just screwed them to the metal not hard just takre your time so you don't cut the fender well silly.
