Help! Need wiring instructions

Hello- I'm leaving for a 2 week trip tomorrow (Sat 8/9)- and I seem to have lost the install instructions for a Hyper-Lite kit for my '08 R12RT (it's the R1200RT II kit- with the 16 led's). I have the lights mounted on the bike and notched into the rear brake light housing- but I need to know which wires splice into which on the bike to get it working. It would be nice to get it working before I leave so if anyone happens to have a spare copy of the instructions laying around and might be able to summarize them here for me...like in the next few hours...that would be great!
 
Hyper-Lite Black Ground Wire - Brown


Hyper-Lite Gray Running Light Power - Gray w/Black Stripe or Red w/Green Stripe


Hyper-Lite Red Brake Light Power - Gray w/Yellow Stripe


This is right from their web site:

Thanks. I saw those- there were some additional, R12RT instructions where you can either choose to splice into the security wiring plug or get power from an ignition source/can bus helper.
 
Well I'm off to Glacier. Was having trouble getting ahold of the Hyper-Lites folks and thought I'd throw in that last ditch effort. They'll probably respond to my email in a few weeks when I'm back and I'll sort it out then. In the meantime I've instructed my passenger to flap her arms like a pterodactyl when she senses I've hit the brakes- that oughta get their attention and the gyroscopic forces will probably stabilize the bike.....;)
