Was going to mention this in the LED headlight thread but then thought it may be a hijack.
The BusDepot has good deals on the Cibie E-code copy ($35/pr) or Hella E-codes ($70/pr) plus bulbs. http://www.busdepot.com/nl910ch4/ (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/cdn.busdepot.com-26-1467043928.1.jpg) |

Can the standard 55/60 watt bulbs really be used without adding relays?

Can the standard 55/60 watt bulbs really be used without adding relays? Yes, but anything bigger will need a relay(s). Might be wrong but for the 90/100w I think you would need 4 SPDT 5-pin relays, 2 (hi-low) for each side. I'd get the 40amp relays and I would also get the matching sockets to make a clean install. You can get these at many FLAPS, off of amazon I think they're about $7ea with sockets. The relay must have five terminals labeled 85, 86, 30, 87, and 87a, these relays are a common bosch copy. If they are not marked with the numbers above they're likely the wrong relay. Also note that bigger than the 55/60 is actually not DOT legal and I'd never use bigger than the 55/60 in a plastic light housing. I believe the ones in this thread are all glass or glass/metal. |
