Connect both light wires together...red to red and black to black...that way you have only the two wires to connect instead of four. I connected my fronts to a single pole-double throw (SPDT) switch which allows me to switch from dome light power to constant power (lights always on). My constant power is coming from the lighter in the center console above the stickshift; of course the power will cut off as soon as you open the driver door.
I installed the switch as seen below. It's a mini toggle switch.
