Default Quick angel eye install question

I'm in the middle of installing my Mycarr 30 LED angel eyes and I have a quick question.

The thick, short, red wire with the metal loop at the end AND the thick, short, black wire with the metal loop at the end. They both come from the relay. What do I do with these?

connect those positive and ground wires directly to the wires coming off the angel eyes.

Off the angel eyes on each side, combine both red wires and connect it to the one red wire on the harness. Do the same for the black wires on the angel eyes.

These are LED angel eyes which do not come with inverters

Sounds like red is positive, black negative. That will power that angel eyes once triggered by the relay.

Ok, I'm still confused about this. Let me try to clarify. These wires are 1-2 feet long coming from the relay and they're not long enough to go anywhere. I'll post a picture of these two in my next post.

Oh!

Those are for the battery (positive terminal on other side where you mount the relay) and the ground mount that right into the 10mm nut thats in the same area as the relay.

Ohh alright. I was hesitant to connect directly to the battery for some reason. Thanks a lot. I'll post again here if I run into any other problems along the way.
