Robyn;
I assume you are going to use a relay to energize these spots. From this
relay's control coil will be a wire to chassis ground. Instead hook it to
the high beam's hot wire. If the high beams are off the relay will find a
ground path through the bulbs filaments. If the high beams are on the
12volts across the filaments will prevent the spot's relay from
energizing.
Drive Safely & Good Luck
