2012 headlight delete resistor wiring

Looking for someone in the know on the wiring in of a Resistor to take some of the load off the lighting coil since I removed the headlight.
I was told on a 13 to hook into the AC plug behind the shock tower. I have a 2012 and The electronics are different and I dont have a AC port labled behind the shock tower.
There are 3 open plugs: DC, ECM and ? not labled but Red and brown wires. Is the red wire in that harnes the right place to plug into? Or what wire in the harness should I be tapping into?
Resistor is mounted and grounded to the belt guard just need correct wire to splice to.
Anyone in the know? Mountain Horse?

You want to tap into the headlight connector to be the cleanest connection.

One headlight plug... wire the high and low beam together...run that to one side of the resistor... then run the other side to main ground wire or to the brown wire in the headlight connector.

If you must use one of the white connectors... Use this one... as shown in the 11/12 BD install manual.
