sweeeet i am goin to do this, does it affect anything in the electrical system?

 

cool love this kinda easy stuff

 

negative. No effect on electrical system. Our lights are on 2 different systems. This just provides a common ground.

 

If it provides a common ground couldn't you just as well ground the low beam light to the chasse to get the same effect? Maybe this would be a little bit cleaner mod considering you wouldn't have to tamper with the relay.

 

sweeeet looks like i have sumthn to do soon to the truck

 

do it now. Takes about 2 minutes. Much happy

 

lazy...hahaha

 

dude thats bad ass!!!

does it matter what kind of wire you use?

 

a metal one. :shrug:



hey does anyone know if this will affect things later on down the road like the relay itself or any fuses?

 

After:

To ask what's probably a stupid question, how'd you get your fog lights to stay on with the high beams? Btw, brilliant (so simple its stupid, lol) way of keeping the low beams on with the highs!

 

this whole thread.. do that mod.. then your highs will stay on with the fogs and lows.. :shrug:

 

And you still have the option of just having low and low/fog?

 

yessir you sure do!

 

I did this mod back in September of 2005.

30 months and over 75k miles later and no issues with the mod. I even have HIDs in my lows!

 

what bulbs are in your highbeams?

 

yeah....... um.............I did this.. but my fog lights still shut off? my low beams stay on.. but fogs are still shutting off.. why?

 

The fog light mod is on another relay. It's much more complicated and required 12v+ input. I had it in mine for a very short time and didn't feel it was safe. I can't find the info on it any longer though.

 

WOW!!! i was literally about to go do the whole mr.taillight kit thing and then read this....

i just installed HIDs and was wondering if there was an easier way to do this haha...NICE!

 

i just bought the MR.Tailights kit... easy to install. I got 8000k on my highs, lows and fogs and havent had a problem with it yet.

 

this is pretty cool but the HIDs with the regular lights look like crap together.

 

ive got 5000k HIDs in the lows and silverstar bulbs in the highs and i think they look pretty decent. i was out testing them on pitch black back roads and they lit the road up really well

 

Did this 2day b4 I left work took. Less than 5mins(including looking 4 supplies). Now just need HIDs in my highs.

 

^weerd

 

OKAY, go to your local auto parts recycle yard and get a couple of relays with the same pin out and try the mod, got 3 from a local yard ( okay I ice race with the owner) do the mod If you don't like it pop back in your old relay!!
D

 

i so was thinking about doing this. but i kinda like flickering my lights at ppl. instead of brights on off on off on off

 

If you have HIDs in the lows, the flickering can shorten the life of the bulbs or the ballast.

 

Thanks norm! it worked great! and was by far the easiest mod I have ever done

 

Another dumb question, when you flash someone, will all 6 lights come on, that is if you have the fog lights (which I do)?

 

no Just 4. your highs and lows will be lit.

 

ok. I was just out having a smoke and decided to do this quick. Ran into a problem, turned my lights on and the high beams came on with out the high beam switch on. Turned the high beams on and the lows went out.

Are you suppose to connect 30 and 87 or 87A? I connected 30 and 87 and thats what it did. Thought that low/ high were suppose to stay on with high beam on, not the low?

 

its 30 and 87a. And yes the the lows stay on when you turn the highs on.

 

Mr.tailights kit comes with a warrenty... :shrug:

it seriously takes maybe 20 minutes to do... Mine is STILL working perfect with my HIDS in highs lows and fogs.

 

is it bad to do this mod with Hids?
