To get any reasoned advice you'd really need to be a bit clearer on what you've got...
1) What does your car have stock - H4 or H7 (crystals) Has it been modified before? (like upgraded from H4 to H7)
2) What does the lights you've bought have? - pics help...
Basically you need these wires
* +12V dipped beam
* +12V main beam
* +12V indicator
* +12V sidelight
* Ground. ( Possible multiple, as in separate for main bulbs/indicator/sidelight - but they could be combined into one.
Identify these in the car and on your lights, then decide how you want to join them physically, proper connectors that can be unplugged or crimp butt connectors...
If your car currently has H4 lights and your morettes are dual bulb, you'll want to consider if/how you want to make the dipped bulb stay on along with the main bulb when you switch from dipped to main. Same as for an upgrade from H4 to H7 (crystals) which has been covered well before, search and/or browse through the How-to section

You need to put them on some online service (or your own website if you have one), ie publish them on the web somewhere, then link to them in your posting text using [ img ] [ /img ] tags around them (without the extra spaces) if you want them to show inline in your post (or click the mountain image button (below the fat B button) in the button field above text text field where you write your post, and paste the url into the text field of the pop-up window that opens).
See here as well

Hey all I'm new here and have an issue just fitted some morettes to my car tonight I've earthed both the left and the right lights to the bolt behind and below the lights where the original cable is earthed I also did this with the cable that's meant to go on fuse box (incorrectly) the lights worked ok but when I put full beam on the passenger main headlight went out. Driver side works fine. When full beam is I passenger side was off on dipped however when I wired it correctly as per this site the dipped beam comes on but only with the full beam and not without it, any ideas what is going on here...have I just blown a fuse any help would be appreciated

Your description was rather hard to follow, but from the last part it does sound like you might have blown the fuse for the dipped beam.
The reason the dipped beam comes on only with the main would be that the dipped beam's powers supply is at that time switched, by the relay, from the cars original supply (whose fuse is likely shot) over to a new supply directly from the battery.
The intention of this new/extra supply is to keep the dipped beam on along with the main beam, despite the car turning off the original feed to the dipped beam (on a H4 bulb only one filament at a time can be on without overheating the bulb).
