About those high watt lights.  I just called my local
Vanagon parts house (Autocraft -- VW that's all they
do) and asked the owner about this.  He told me there
is a relay already in place in the fuse panel.  The
relay is $27.00 so it appears the on/off switch and
high/lo switch are protected.

What say the masses (I'm not familiar at all with the
wiring of the headlights on the Vanagon)
