Subject:Help with Frank's headlight relay upgrade

I emailed Frank about this yesterday but I think they're on holiday til next week. Can anyone who has done this upgrade help me understand what I'm doing?

Hi Frank,

   I started to install your relay kit in my '84 Vanagon today. I have a little confusion. On page 5, the "Installation Procedure for 1980 - 85 Vanagons", the fourth paragraph states "Next, find at the rear of fuse 4 the yellow w/black stripe wire that goes to the low beams of the head lights". The confusing part for me is that fuse 4 is only the right had side of the low beams. Fuse 3 handles the left side of the low beams. Same thing with your instructions in the next paragraph regarding fuse 6 and the wire that goes to the high beams. Fuse 6 is only for the right hand side of the high beams. Fuse 5 handles the left hand side of the high beams. For some reason it seems to me that following your directions I will only be relaying the right hand side of my headlight circuit. Please correct me if I am wrong!

Thanks, Leo
