A little more information would help us help you.

Are you using LEDs or hot bulbs?

DC or DCC?

Also what voltage are your LEDs or bulbs rated for.

And is it just the headlight you are installing or will you have any other lights (ditch lights, marker lights, beacon, whatever.)

I would like to see pictures of the model too, I always like to see locos that people detail[:D]
