Subject:Driving Lights Circuit

Hi Volks,
I've been stalling on installing a set of driving lights on our '84 westy for some time because of my limited electrical knowledge, but recently I decided to tackle it. I did some reading on electrical and now I think I can do it. Sounds pretty simple since all I want to do is install the lights on an independent circuit that I manually control with a switch. So correct me if I'm wrong, but I just need to have power from the battery run through a fuse, switch, relay and then to the loads with everything grounded and I'm good to go. Any tips? Is there a specific order things need to be in in the circuit? Should I use a specific gauge of wire or type of relay? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm pretty green at this.
Thanks,
Steve ('84 westy - Moaning Myrtle)
