Spot lights - what, how, where?

I now have the nudge bar on the front of my P38 HSE, but it needs spot lights cos it looks bare.

What should I buy?

How do I wire them up?

Do I need any special switches in the cab?

Wire to activation side of a relay from mainbeam wire on a headlamp. Usually blue/white i think. Wire from other side of relay activation to ground. Wire from + through 15 amp fuse to relay, then to lamp, then from lamp to ground. They can only be on with highbeam. If you want to switch them off with highbeam on run wire from blue/white to switch in cab then to relay.

Sorry forgot, you can use 5 amp cable to do the switching but you need 17 amp cable for the feed to the lamps.

Now I feel ashamed - but then again, what the hell - I like to old 80s look, plus where I live we do not have street lights, plus there is no lighting in the fields either
