the other day i saw a thread explaining how to activate the low beams with the high beams via relay.
i need a 12v relay 20 amps fuse and some wire
i do know how to wire so no problem there.
my concern is: the headlights wont get damaged by this due to overheating?
has anyone done this?
i drive a lot on country roads and i have some fog lights , but some extra light when i use the high beams wont be bad.
any input appreciated
thanks! :icon_thumby:
 
i would be worried about the extra heat. you can get the headlight bulb sockets that are designed for higher heat though at auto parts stores. might be some cheap insurance
 
hmm yeah im gonna look for those before wiring stuff
thanks man!
ill wait to install the bumper fogs too, maybe then i wont need to do this, im gonna have another set just like the ones on my avatar :D, but u never know...
 
i did this mod 2 years ago, no problems . have not even burnt out a light. mine is a first gen , and my not produce the heat that the new lights put out
