Wiring hella 500 lights

[silveradoreb]

I want to wire two of the hella 500 driving lights on my brushguard. I have the kit with the included reley and everything. Where should I ground each light, and run the wires from the lights to the reley? Sould I go through the grill or what. And where should I put the reley, and for the wire for the switch, do I have to drill a hole in the firewall or is there already a hole. I am planning on putting a hot wire from the swittch to the fuse box so I can turn them on whenever. Long question- sorry but thanks for any input.

I had a local shop put Hella 550's on my guard. I had them use a GM style switch that I picked up, and I also used another switch for rear lights. You can get a 4 pod housing which goes in place of the stock housing which is in the area near the airbag shutoff. If you do, you can use factory looking switches there. Jason Pendlum of JP Customs was a great help and even had some wiring diagrams for the aux. lighting. You may wish to try to contact him.
