light switch add on

does anybody here know how the light switch that draws the voltage from the battery instead of the light switch work? does it have its own off and on switch or does it use the one on the car? in the magazine it states you can use it as an upgrade for the newer headlights. I called the 1-800 # and spoke to one of their sales reps but he did not know how it worked or how to install it.

you mean using relays to power the headlights? I did that.
I activate the relays using the power wire from the low beams right on the headlight plugs.

strangely, my high beams no longer work with the factory wiring. I'm not sure why. oh, and my clips on the two horns keep falling off. I can't flash my high beams or use my horn!!! maybe that's a good thing

you will have to add a second relay to make your high beams work. using the signal off the high beam power at the light, then they will work like stock. crimp the spades on the horn connection bleach, running without the horn can get you a ticket if a cop decides to check.
