how many amps do they draw? if you are not running headlight relays....i would be concerned about burning out your beam selector switch.

are you using relays, or are you pushing that much juice thru your 30 year old switches?

Pushing Juice...no relays...unless Mark did it with his "Bright-Fix" (which is awesome too).

I'm not sure on your law over there but i've recently fitted HID's to my spider

WOW what a difference, the H4 kit over here costs around $250.
Night time driving is so much better now that I can see where i'm going
