i have an aprilia rs 125, i want to connect a single bi-xenon projector angel/devil eye headlight, but tbh i dont know how to wire it up. i've already bought the light (a universal motorycle one) but dont know where to go from here as my bike came with no headlight.
this is how the set came;

i then connected the wires together where they fit:

my question is, where do the wires (circled in different colours) go? as i said my bike didnt come with a headlight so i have no idea how to connect this up
im assuming the two hoops go to the battery terminals, other than that i dont know what im doing.. im also assuming theres some soldering involved (green circled wires)?

Here is the wiring diagram for your bike.

Do you have any cables coming from the loom to where your headlight used to be or nothing there at all?

yeah theres a few different ones but not sure which is for the headlight.
also, from the HID i got there's bare wires that would need to be soldered on and other connections that i have no idea where to connect to...

Is this guide showing something similar to your set?

It's similar yeah, but I'm only going to be wiring one light, and that tutorial also doesn't show where the rest of the wires plug in to

okay so i connected the red circled wire to the blue circled wire.
im guessing the two loops go on to the battery terminals.
so does anyone know where the white circled wire goes, and the two wires with no connectors circled in green are meant to be connected on my bike?

The white connector goes to your existing (looks like h4) headlight plug, in place of the bulb. It sounds like you don't have that part of the loom, though?

You need to hook it up somehow because it is how you control hi and low beam, the feeds to the bulb connector come from the switch gear. It's like the coil feed to a relay sort of thing.

The green/yellow circle, I am guessing mind, is the power to the angel eye. Doesn't need high power, hence the low gauge wire. Probably hook it up to ground and an a switched live from the ignition.

I probably have the wire connected to the loom somewhere on my bike, but since it never came with headlights I don't know what the wire looks like, its probably buried somewhere in the bike though, just have to know what I'm looking for (for instance I found the front brake light wire buried down near the horn).
As for that angel eye, how would I go about wiring it up?
