I agree Skip. The things a person can score by just keeping thier "peepers peeled". I scoreed a good share of the items I used on my harness from work. They were all items heading to the garbage can.Uncle Skip wrote:I got my relays with the correct plugs from the junk yard for a buck.
Both of them.
I cut the plug wiring as long as I possibly can, but even if you cut them short just be sure to leave enough so you don't have to splice the wires right at the plug.
I'm going to look for some more because I'm planning to relay several other systems including my a/c.
You might have to get one each from different cars, but if they're from the same year and brand car, getting them from the junk yard is a pretty cheap solution to a semi-expensive problem.
Just my dos centavos worth.....

I agreee, it would be a complete new harness. Run a 14/3 (high, low, ground)cable to each light. Then run a 12/2 to the battery for pos & neg.ICEMAN6166 wrote:i would not do it without making an entire new harness with 14awg wire to the lights and plug ins for the relay and inline 20A blade fuses.
also very nice to have it so hi/low beams are on at the same time(i added a extra switch to control this.)
i brought my entire old harness inside when i made the new one , also did the rear lights at the same time, everything soldered with plug ins at the stock places.
I also put my relays inside the cab with the fuse block.
