I bought a relay and a wiring harness for it at a local marine sales store. The coil wires connect the tail light (actually I used the top box light connector) to ground and the switched connections is directly from positive battery terminal. I use this relay to power everything that I connected to my bike.

I was going to post that thread but Tim beat me to it. You might try my suggestion there as tapping the taillight using scotchlocks are not reliable.

Being a newb, thats what I used and it hasn't caused me any problems, yet. When I get time, I'm going to go back and solder all of my connections. I been practicing.

Actually I find that the posilocks are better for me than soldering. The reason is that you don't need slack in the wire like you do when soldering and you can easily remove them later and solder it if you don't want the posilock in there.
