okay well this is a real ghetto way of doing it but dont judge me haha use this as a guide to just figure something out. but this is how i did it. cut off the stock butt connector for the highbeams and run the positive wire of it to your fuse box to one of the fuses to get signal for when to turn on or off and ground it some where in the chasis and bamm its done
first of all your gnna have to cut off the butt connector for the high beams off. on both connectors theres 2 wires. make sure you use the same wire for both butts as the positive and same ones for the ground.
ok lets start wiring. lets start with the left one first. your gnna get a super longg wire that would be long enough wire to run from the positive of the left headlight to bridge in with the right headlight and enough to go through the firewall in the back of the motorchasis to the fuse box between the door and the steering column.
connect the wire to the chosen positive wire of the left highbeam butt then run it through the radiator area then strip the wire near the right highbeam to bridge in the positive for that side. then run it backwards and through it through a rubber whole thinggy behind the brake fluid bottle thing. and bring it through to the other side under the steering column right above the brake pedal. its kinda hard getting to run the wire through there. i used the little took for patching up the hole in tires and stuff. its like a flathead screw drive with a hole at the end. i just stuck the wire in the hole of the tool and punctured it through the fire wall. but any whooo.
sorry i had no other pictures and my cars in the shop soo i had to work with this picture. its half the chasis but please bare with me
and heres a picture of the firewall. stick it through here and it should go through to the other sidee.
then ground the left over wires from the butt connectors, i chose on the left side as the stock ground where the battery grounds itself and the other side to the headlight mounting bolt.
and this is how it would look on the other side of the fire wall above the pedals and stuff
run that positive wire up the fuse box and take out one of the fuses, i chose the windshield wipers cause the windshield wipers only turn on acc when you turn the key.
and i chose to put a switch on mines cause i knew i wouldnt want it on all the time. the switch i got had 3 prongs coming out of it. supply, ground, pos.
supply went to the high beams which was the output basically.
ground, bolt it anywhere on the car chasis.
pos, is the remote signal like the wipr fuse.
drill a hole in the little cover thing. stick the switch in there. and then go test it out.
to be on the safe side i would use 10 guage wire for the whole project and put a fuse on the positive wire before the fuse. mine fried a few times hahaha but havnt had a problem lately. and yeahh doing this dosnt really dim the light down at all! so if you want it to be dimmer, go out and BUY ONE! and do that. you can also use relays and such but i dont understand relays so its your job to figure that out.
sorry the way i did it was pretty lame, but this is the first stepping stone for you guys so grow off of this.
but here play with it
ON!!
OFF!!
OH YEAH!!! your stock high beam switcheroo does not work any more. YOU DISCONNECTED IT SO YEAHH!! thats a common question asked.
and you gotta get hyper yellow bulbs 9005. or else your gnna look gayy. thank you for looking at this and please tell me if you have any confusions or anythinggggggg
