    bypassing the RLU

    I tracked down the wires coming from the high/low beam switch and the wire from the head light on relay (on when engine starts).

    I installed 2 30 amp automotive relays ($6 ea). One drives the high bean and the other the low beam. I use the wires from the high/low beam switch to activate the relays.

    I mounted the relays in the headlight bucket and power them with a good size wire.
