is it possible to rewire the car to have both ur hi-beams and lo-beams on at the same time?
and also is there a way to keep the fog lights on when the hi-beams come on?

in essence what im askin is "is it possible to have all 3 sets of forward facing lights on all at once?"

yes it's possible, but the high beams turned on while the fogs are on defeat the purpose of the foglights. you're doing it to look cool, but once you actually have fog and then you have your highbeams lighting up the fog, you wouldn't be able to see past the edge of your hood. it's a VERY stupid idea.

http://www.aleromod.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21207&highlight=light I have had this on my car since this thread and it works every time with no issues. Follow this thread as black has posted.

Talk about annoying everyone else on the road you mean...This should really only be used on back roads...I live in an area that can get real country real quick so this is great on back roads.

yes it's possible, but the high beams turned on while the fogs are on defeat the purpose of the foglights. you're doing it to look cool, but once you actually have fog and then you have your highbeams lighting up the fog, you wouldn't be able to see past the edge of your hood. it's a VERY stupid idea.
Like I said above all the lights only come on when the high beams are engaged....you also don't have to include the 2nd relay that keeps the fogs on when the highs are engaged..that is merely an added bonus. When the highs aren't on the lights function normally.
holy jeez, talk about killing your alternator and melting your housings
This draws 10 times less current then running an amp at mid level the whole time you are riding around in the car. The housings are designed to with stand greater temperatures, hence the reason they don't melt on a 100 degree plus day with the lights running.

Hope I answered questions about this. It is a really neat thing to have going...I could take a pic of normal mode, and super high beam mode.

Yes....different roads to the same place. If I have 1.20amps ten times less would be what?





........ .12 that's right this is 10 times less then 1.20...or 1/10th

hope that helps! LOL
