so, the H4 Headlight Upgrade Kit on pelican recommends a high-power relay for the 100 watt bulbs.

now the stupid question:

do i just need one or do i need one for each headlight?

Call me foolish but I have put H4's on both my old 924 and my current 944, never installed a relay and have never in 5+ years had an issue. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

It all depends on the bulbs you are using. I upgraded to the Hella H4s and stuck with the stock wattage 60/55, so I don't need to run them straight from the battery. You only need relays if you go with the 100w high beams. The standard H4 is plenty bright for my purposes.
