High Beams and Low beams??

is it possible to wire your low beams to stay on when you turn on your high beams??? that way i can have low beams and then bothe highs and lows when i turn the highs on???if so. could i get a wiring diagram??

well you have to re run the wires cause the 16ga in there now will burn up if you use them both at the same time.

couldnt you run it off a different relay

yeah, but im saying that the harness on the light itslef needs to be upgraded. its easliy doable though

The high beams are already bright enough. There's no reason to have both together. If you wire that up, you'll probably just melt your housings or something and blind people that pass you.

i was actually curious of the same thing but havent had a chance to take a look at the wiring yet.

i dont see the housing melting, it would only be about 110W of light in each side. people can stick 100W lights in their housings and nothing happens.

i could possibly see the harness not being able to handle it, depends on what the two circuits share. it is probably as simple as a jumper or cutting a prong on the relay.

if you have the diagram email it to me or post it up on here.

if i figure something out, i'll let you know.

drive down the road with ur brights on then pull back the lever. it makes little or no difference at all with the low beams on with highs. be a waste of time imo

i was thinking of the look of having the whole assembly light up aswell.

i think it would be more assethtically pleasing to have the whole thing light up.

im going to spend some time with it today or tomorrow, so if i figure out a sol'n, i will let you know.
