A little help here please..... I have a 1987 Ranger XLT and I bought a set of H-4 Halogen headlights from ebay. They worked great for about a year, then on my way to Portland, I had smoke rolling out from around my steering column. $460.00 later, I got it back from the dealership, after they had to replace the dimmer switch, and the wiring harness, because the H-4s were drawing too much power from the factory wiring harness. I've been told, from some of my rally buddies who have the same ones on their older rigs, that I can add in a relay or in line fuse to prevent this from happening again. For now I've just gone back to my sealed beams. Any Ideas and/or advice on how I can put them back in, but not have to wory about it melting wiring again?
