spot light fitting

Help, where does the live feed for an after market pair of spot lights come from on a cooper S? The lights are fitted, complete with relay, but with the battery in the boot, I don't know the best place to take a live feed from. Can anybody shed any light on this?

go to this link. http://minimeet.co.uk/instructions/Spot%20Lights.pdf. I fitted them on my last Mini, the OEM's are really cheaply manufactured. They will start to rust in next to no time. I fitted Hella's the second time around and they are so much easier to fit and they don't rust. So anyone out there don't but OEM they are way over priced and will let your Mini down. IMO. Plus Hella's are cheaper and look better IMO.

Oh plus I forgot to say there is none of this activating at the dealer with Hella's which normally costs another £30.00 for 2 minutes work.
