If it's such a bargain, tonio, then bid for it. We'll sort out the actual connections later.

Antonio - you have just thanked LoveRocket for telling you EXACTLY THE SAME THING that Figure 3 in those instructions tells you.

The fact that you couldn't grasp that incredibly simple diagram shows that you don't actually understand how electrical circuits work, and doing work on the basis of following instructions along the lines of "insert this wire into that terminal" without understanding, and I mean REALLY understanding, why and how it all works is irresponsible and dangerous.

Please get an electrician.
