I put in the Hella H4 headlight conversion and its awesome. BUT Im worried too many amps will run through the switch. Does anyone have a schematic on how to put in relays to offset the load through the switch?

I think youd probably get away with the 60/55w bulbs without a relay, but keep in mind that these cars are getting pretty old, and the wiring is getting oxidized.. adding a relay really is an easy thing to do... plus, it allows you to run the high 90/100w halogen bulbs without the risk of damaging wires..
I have a set of euro h4's and the higher output halogen lamps on order from bus depot along with the relays. I'll let you know how it goes once theyre installed.. |
