>>Yes, and you saved what ?  <<

$56.80 USD to be exact!!!!

In upgrading my headlight circuit(s), I was able to pick up ALL of the
parts, including the upgraded bulbs, relays, and relay holders for $44.
Frank's listing out at http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/hdltrela.htm shows that
the cost for those parts would be a bit over $100 (including shipping to
US).

Mr. Condelli makes an excellent point....
 I did save money but spent a lot of time running around finding the parts,
dealing with vendors who I didn't know, and making up my own instructions
from the info presented on the internet.  And, I didn't get Bosch relays.
The outcome is the same but I invested time and burned a few brain cells in
the process.
If I were not of questionable IQ, I likely would have gone with a well
documented kit like Frank's.

Cheers
Brent
