The heavier gauge wiring is only required if you plan
on running higher wattage bulbs than stock.

An inexpensive relay can be installed in a few minutes
to re-route the headlight circuit current around the
headlight switch instead of thru it. The output of the
headlight switch controls the operation of the relay.

A diagram of my installation resides here:
