Is easy for a single relay. HOWEVER I still would take the power from alt stud or any point on alt side of power to get teh right reading on ammeter. YES & using Nacho's advice of adding 2 wires to bypass the black/red main connection points at the bulkhead connector. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

Thanks, Darren I have a 15a low beam and 20a high beam fuse. Depends on what bulbs you are running. Mine are aftermarket H4's. If you take the resistance of the low beam filament, then divide 14 (avg voltage while running) by your resistance reading, then multiply it times to (bulbs). You will get the amperage draw for the low beams. I'd go up to the next size to account for any surge. And do the same for the high beam. (high beam filament will be lower resistance than the low beam). Example Bulb resistance 1.5ohms (just a random figure) Avg running voltage 14v 14v divided by 1.5ohms = 9.3a x 2 bulbs = 18.6a (i'd run a 20a fuse) 1972 Barracuda - 5.7L Hemi, T56 Magnum 6spd - https://www.facebook.com/GoodysGotaHemi 2020 RAM 1500 [img]https://i.imgur.com/v9yezP9.jpg[/img]
