<P><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=3>There are relay kits that you can buy -- I did.&nbsp; But, when I started to install, I noticed that there wasn't an exact match to the instructions.&nbsp; My buddy gave me a pair of 100W Hella driving lights, 30 minutes later, installed.&nbsp; Makes ALL the difference in the world.&nbsp; Two other of our little group (Florida Vanagon Owners) have driving lights as well on the front bumper.&nbsp; I really like this setup as my current lighting plus the driving lights equals good night driving.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=3>However, putting relays in to shunt the current around your headlight switch is still the way to go -- that way you won't have to replace that switch when you least expect it.&nbsp; Once I straighten out my wiring diagram, I plan to put in the relays, but for now I'm good to go with driving lights installed on the front bumper.</FONT></P>

<BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid; WIDTH: 100%">I have been driving in two lane roads a lot at night just north of <BR>Columbus and am noticing an extreme lack of lighting. I notice it <BR>really bad with a modern vehicle bearing down on me with their nice <BR>bright headlights. Does the headlight relay kit make a huge difference <BR>or is it just little bit more illumination? <BR><BR><BR><BR>Thanks, <BR><BR><BR><BR>Kurt <BR><BR>87 Wolfsburg GL <BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE>
