I agree with Hopz. Wire it like the wiring diagram shows. I suggest picking up the switched power source from the parking light. CanBus won't be affected and you control the on/off from the PIAA switch. This is the same wiring method as I used for my MotoLights. There is plenty of room to run the wire harness along the right frame rail under the tank to get to the battery.

The rear aux power outlet stays hot for about 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Most folks use the front parking lights as the switched power for auxiliary lighting, they turn off as soon as the ignition switch is turned off.

Right! That's why I used the parking light for the switched power. The rear aux power outlet is a lot easier to get to though. I pulled the parking light bulb out to get to the wire. Small hands would be helpful to reinstall the bulb!
