Default Where to Connect LED Light Bar?

2014 Honda 420FPA

I installed a LED bar, but have yet to wire it in. Would like to wire it into light switch circuit for low beams, assuming it will stay on for high beams also. I am an old fart so am looking for an easily accessible place if possible.

Other concern is current draw. It takes 2 amps. So wherever it goes, the circuit has got to handle an additional 2 amps.
Any help will be appreciated.

There are three wires under the front plastic, with a plug on them, that go to the front lights. If you want LEDs on low beam only, find out which of these is the low beam live, (one is green for earth) and connect light bar to that live and earth. If you want the LEDs to work on both Hi and Lo, connect to the wire going to the rear light. This has a plug and socket in the battery box, again there are three wires as one is the brake live. Up the lighting fuse size by 5 amps if it blows, but my guess is you won't need to.
