Wiring lights for Apollo 250
I have a few questions about wiring. (I'm a computer guy, not a bike-expert, so these are rookie questions.)
I need front light and tail light. I purchased a front one, I'm about to buy a rear one. Do I need anything to know about these? Which ones are compatible with my Apollo 250? http://www.ebay.com/itm/12V-Dirt-Bik...-/253082904407 This one looks the same as the one above. http://www.ebay.com/itm/12V-Enduro-D...-/263169556096 This one's holes are placed different. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dirt-Bike-Mo...-/253049695478 + I need a harness wire. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odk...50&_sacat=6000 I don't know which one. Any advice? I guess I need the base wire + a switch for the head and the tail light, like this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tusk-Compact...-/172696908510 |

I would get one of the the first two tail lights I personally liked the first one.
Buy the Switch for the turn signal and Head Lamp http://www.ebay.com/itm/Motorcycle-D...sAAOSwhL9ZeAdW The last piece is to see what you have for brake light switches you may need to buy a new hand control for the front brake so you have a switch to hook up to and do you have a switch for the rear brake? As far as a harness I agree with HB make your own

Someone told me that this is what I should get: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tusk-Enduro-...-/191730916824 The bike has a front break switch. I don't see rear one. |

I just need front and tail light, with an on-off switch. It's still going to be off-road v., but my county allows it on county roads with with restrictions, if the ORV has head and tail light.

Thank you, I ordered the the tail light and the switch, I have the front one, now I order the harness and that's all.
Funny store: I ordered a tail light from Aliexpress 6 weeks ago, but the seller gave me a fake (?) tracking number, and didn't reply to my messages. I disputed the transaction a few days ago and the site refunded me, I got my money back. Beware of fake sellers on Ali. |

I got the harness, the back light, and the switch too. But...
...how do I connect these? (front light) ...and these? (back light) I need somekind of a special connector and housing for them, I guess. But I cannot even find anything like the 3 in the row on the back light photo. And I can't unplug them from the plastic housing either. |

Two options. 1. Cut away the bullet connectors, find the opposing male/female plug for the connectors and their pins, crimp the pins on and pin the plug to match the one on the harness. 2. Cut off the plastic connectors and go to the parts store and buy weatherproof bullet connectors - mainly female based on the pictures - and strip the insulation back from the connector wires you cut, crimp the connectors on, and connect the bullet connectors together to the wires they pair with.
2 is going to be a lot easier.
