wiring up a set of headlights for the 2n

incandescent lamps don't cara about polarity. just install a lamp switch with a fuse based on wire size.. I'd use 14awg and 20a fuse. source power from the same location the ignition switch gets it. IE.. the bottom of the 3 posts on the resistor block.... from the switch, run a wire to the first lamp, then a stringer over to the second. I prefer to run a ground wire from the lamp bases back to a good ground, like the battery terminal itself if it has an aux wir eon it.. or if a universal replacement end with clamp screws, under one of those. otherwise use the block grounding location. This is much better than 70 year old rusty sheet metal for ground.
 
Google "wiring diagrams by JMOR", he included the lights.
Otherwise, as souNdguy said, they're pretty basic.
I am not a fan of TSC, but I have used a three position light
switch they sell with good results. It is in the automotive aisle,
not the tractor section and has a glass fuse holder built on.
It has positions for headlights only, headlights and tail light both
or just tail light.
I can't post a direct link, but this will work if you copy/paste and
replace "external_link" with "tractorsupply".
I looked, I don't see one like it sold here on YT.
