I have a Canadian 90Westy so I new it was there ~ I removed the HeadLights from the DRL Circuit
not to long after I bought it back in 06 & now just have the ParkingLights Running FullTime ~
For XtraLight I run Sylvania SilverStarUltra in the LowBeams & Sylvania SilverStar In the Highs &
have Relays + CloseGrounds ~ Lots of QuiteNice Light ~
