My MM10's came today. Nice to see a company that takes pride in what they do. Friendly, helpful guy on the phone, shipped promptly and packaged nicely!
So.....I have a FZ1 fuzeblock installed on my bike. I have a hot lead and a ground wired in from the fuzeblock and sitting under my glove box. (Once in a while I actually plan ahead)
I want to wire the lights so that they are always on. I can use the switched setting on fuzeblock for the powered switched source. So I can figure out the + and - coming from the relay, but where or how do I need to wire everything else in since I will not be using a switch?
Thanks!

On a closer look it appears.....that I can cut out the fuse on the + side because the power side will be fused at the fuze block.
The - can go back to the fuze block.
The 17 feet of red and white wire that would go to the switch can be cut to leave two wires a second ground and the other that needs to go to a switched source. My GPS power source is also wired in nearby. I guess I could pull the switched source from there since draw to activate relay is minimal?? :-\

For any other electrical neophytes looking to do the same thing...this worked. :)
Damn these lights are bright. ;D

If its like all the stuff I've wired on ignition sense, simply wire the lights to the relay per the instructions. Then from the relay to the bike you should have a hot lead to constant 12V source, and an "ignition sense" lead you'll wire to a source that only comes on when you twist the stove knob.
