I have two LED 4" Light Cube I want to wire to my Jeep. I already have a fused/relay switch in the cab. The the hot wire from the relay is 14gauge. Should I be wiring both hot wires from the LED's to the same hot wire from the relay and both negatives to the ground OR should I be going from the relay hot wire to the hot on the first cube, then the negative wire from the first cube wired to the red wire of the second cube and finally the ground wire from the second cube to the ground?

EDIT: the wiring coming from the relay is 12 gauge.

a 12ga wire should be more than sufficient to power those little cubes.

Connect both hot together and both ground together. Don't connect a hot and a ground together. (I might be misunderstanding you on that but that's the way I read it lol)
