welcome to BGW...if you have four 12 volt batteries you can wire them to 1 battery.......are your wires red and black? if so the red is positive and black is negitive.......connect red to + on battery and black to - of same battery.........do not run any grounds to the body of the cart all grounds go to a battery................................

I have a fuse block for power and a junction block for ground on mine. Makes things much easier.

The best way to do it is to use a DC converter. Then you are using power from the entire battery pack.

If that isnt the way you want to do it, then you need to find out which terminals on your battery pack will give you 12v. Simply run a wire from the (-) terminal to the (-) connections for the NEON. Then run a wire from the (+) terminal to the OFF side of the switch. Run the final wire from the ON side of the switch to the (+) side of the NEON. That will get you switched power to your lights.

OH, and dont forget to at least put an inline fuse between the lights and the battery pack in the (+) wire. I use a 20amp fuse for my Headlights/Taillights and a 10amp for my LED's. Havent had any problems.

If this is a 48 volt RXV, you absolutely NEED to have a DC/DC converter or you will be setting yourself up for major long term problems.... The controller on those cars is VERY sensitive to unbalanced battery power and drawing power for the lights will cause the controller to engage the Electric brake at exactly the wrong moment thereby throwing you into the steering wheel while at full speed.... it doesn't tickle......
