I'll try to take better pics of the wiring etc tomorrow. But the install (wiring) was really easy. The lights come w/ a basic setup:

3 wires:
black
red
yellow

*Ground the Black
*If you want the lights to be 'chasers' (think knight rider), then you just hook up ONE of the wires (any one, doesnt matter) to any power source. In my case, it was any of the 2 cables for the reverse light.
*if you want the lights to just be fully on, then hook up both wires. Can be to the same cable. As long as they have a current running through them.

That was it!
