| alright, this is what i wanna do. Im not sure its possible, nor can i think of a way this would work, but i figured id run it past some of you more intellectual folk.
My headlights run on 2 different bulbs. One for low, one for high.
What im after is making it so that when my highs are on, both bulbs are lit up like when i hold the switch after shutting off and turning on my high beams.
Possible or not? | |

| RJ is the wire/electric wizard......i'll let him chime in but I still think you need a solenoid or bypass in order to not short out a bulb...  I dunno...just guessing really...i usually ask RJ to wire shit up. | |

| This would mean your high beams and DRLs/low beams would be on all the time... | |
