rewiring headlights need ASAP

[me217]

hey
i'm in the process of trying to rewire my headlights in my mighty boy, but i'm having a bit of trouble trying to working out how to do it, i no that the headlights switch negatives not positives. and also my old wiring is fine i just wanna fit relays and heavier wires to run much brighter bulbs.

[Jermaine]

what sort of relay u goin to use? u could get some plus 50 or plus 80 globes nd not worry about upgrading wiring, iv got plus 50's nd they are pretty bright

[me217]

nah im not getting those crap ones, ive got them in my mr2 and they dull. i'm just gonna get standard sorta bulbs but i'm hoping to find some 55 or 60 by 100 or 130. those plus 50's and stuff are still 55/60. plus the standard wiring is crap and doesnt power stock bulbs enough

[Jermaine]

if u have good body earths and stuff i find they not to bad, u could get some 100/90's they be bright..

[me217]

i wanna try keep the low beam close to legal so i dont have people flashing me all the time. spotties hurt lol

[Jermaine]

fair enough, what realys u using? just the standad 4/5 pin one? or a proper head/spot light one?

[me217]

just the standard 4 pin ones mate.

[gazuga]

i run 110/130s. spotties hurt, but not as much as roos


or wombats

[me217]

110's are high for low beam. oncomers must hate you lol

In my landcruiser i cut out the mucking around and threw in HID's... 2-3 times the light output and only 35w current draw... win/win
yes, they were expensive at the time $200+ easy but now they're cheap on ebay.

And yes, people do hate me driving at them, if they flash me, i flash them with HID spotlights too.

Drive around with headlights off, when someone flashes u, turn around and chase them.
