I think my lightbar uses the turn signal power.  I'd track down some lightbar installation instructions and use the power source they would use.

Cheers

cruzrjo here (2005 Drifter 800):
I mounted 4-1/2" spot lights to the front directional light bar. It went easy following the mods/tips provided here. My one question is exactly which wire do I take 12V power from. I want the spots to be on when the bike is on and off when the bike is off. The red/yellow wire in the headlight can is for the low beam, the red/black wire is for the high beam and black/yellow is ground. If I attatch to either wire, the lights go off when I change beams. If I use the white/blue wire in the can for accessories, the spots are ALWAYS on, key or no key. I thought about using the blue wire which is power for the front directionals. This would work but I wonder if the directional circuit could handle the extra power for the spots. I thinking of using the red/blue wire because it seems to be the main supply for lower voltage lights. Any comments?
