Default Wiring halos to a switch??

I was wondering if anyone can explain to me how to wire my halos to a switch. I know the black wire is suppose to be the ground. Where does the red one go if i want a switch??

black to a chassis ground
red goes from the headlight to one side of a switch, and the other side of the switch goes to a +12v constant. just make sure you fuse the wire at wherever you get power from. and both halos can be wired into the same switch

you can get 12 v from either the battery or the ignition harness. you can prolly get the wire colors at the12volt.com

for just 2 halos, you shouldn't need any relays. a relay is just a type of switch. and if you are running your own switch then there is no need
