I am about to attach the wiring.

is there a tester to you know you did right

Voltmeter is one ... what else?

How do you run the wires run it in a tube? tie it to the frame or what?

using a 4 prong but I heard one should attach a seprate wire for brighter trun lights.

what is you view or site that best descibes it.

I ran a "Y" wire. It has green/brown on one leg and yellow/brown on the other. They end with a 4 prong connector. I ran the wires down the side channel. (Had I not had channel I would have run them in conduit or pvc.) I connected the side marker lights by tapping in the brown wire on each side with brown wire so the run is still in one piece. You can get clamp on connectors, but I exposed the wire before clamping them so I get a good connection.

Green to right turn and Yellow to left turn, white to ground
If you get a 6 prong you can run back up lights too. ;)
