home made high 4 kit for less then 3 dollars,

saw this in the other 07 + area but that does not work for us... no headlight relays

so i went to AX man, (surplus store(random everything lol)

so if you are all interested i can put up a write up if you all want

do the write up. i have all the stuff to do it, but i'm too lazy to find the wires myself. lol.

all you need is a 4 pin relay a diode and some wires and some terminals.

step 1 - locate the Aux. post on the fuse box in the top right corner of the engine bay.
step 2 - attach a ring terminal to one wire and attach it to the aux. post (+)
step 3 - measure about 1 foot of wire out and attach another terminal (pin 87 on relay)
step 4 - locate a ground(i used my alarm hood switch)
step 5 - attach a ring terminal to another end of wire (black/ground)
step 6 - attach a terminal to the ground wire (pin 85 on relay)

this is where it starts to get tricky

step 7 - pull the high beam headlight pig tail and locate the + wire (light green)
step 8 - splice a 1 foot piece of wire to the high beam + (light green)
step 9 - soldier the diode to the end of that wire (make sure its the correct direction(only allows current one way))
step 10 - soldier another piece of wire to the other end
step 11 - attach a terminal to the end and attach it to the relay(pin 86)
step 12 - pull the low beam terminal and splice a wire to the positive (tan)
step 13 - attach terminal to the and of that wire and attach to pin 30 on relay

and your done, some one can double check this

good stuff. if i didnt just give away my last relay i'd do this tonight. Weekend project ftw.

it took me like 30 min to do, i did it all on the driver side headlight, and powers the whole system, and if you go to a surplus store like i did they have everything you need, im also thinking about getting all the parts and stuff needed and pre assembling them for sale for like 5 or so dollars, because of the fact that the surplus store literally has everything.

This is the one i got from someone awhile back on TF, looks the same:

The instructions say this:
Here is what you need:
1. 1 Relay (4 prong, with #85, #86, #87 and #30. Common relay for aux lights)
2. 16 gauge wire (I used 4 different colors to tell the difference (green, brown, white, yellow))
3. Conduct
4. Electrial tape
5. 1 Self tapping screw
6. 4 female wire connecters
7. 1 Ring terminal for battery
8. 1 Ring terminal for ground
9. 2 side by side wire connectors
10. 1 inline fuse

Step 1
Disconnect the battery at negative and positve ends for safety

Step 2
Remove the passenger side headlight by the 2 bolts on top (or you can remove the marker light, I removed both just for convinence)

Step 3
Clip the brown wire to the brown wire of the low beams (you don't have to use a brown wire - but make sure that the wire you clipped to the low beams brown wire you remember exactly what it is and where it is)

Step 4
Clip the green wire to the green wire of the high beams(same with low beams you don't have to use a green wire to clip to the green wire but make sure you remember what color and where you placed it)

Step 5
Run the brown wire from the low beams to the relay. Connecting it using a female adapter to #87 (or what ever color wire you used)

Step 6
Run the green wire from the high beams to the relay. Connecting it using a female adapter to #86 (or what ever color wire you used)

Step 7
Run conduct over both green and brown wires(this is used to keep the wires away from anything that could cut into them... metal etc.. however i usually wrap mine with black tape because it is cheaper and these wires are hidden anyways)

Step 8
Run a ground from the relay prong # 85 to the screw that holds it on the fender wall(i couldn't do this with the self-taping screw and wire i used, so i ran another self taping screw right beside where i placed the relay and use an o-ring connector to hold the ground wire onto the self-tapping screw - take a Note you have to screw this into metal I put my relay and ground wire right in front of my battery right on the side of my inner-fender it is metal)

Step 9
Mount the relay near the battery on the passenger side fender using the self tapping screw

Step 10
Run a wire from the relay prong #30 to the battery +, with an inline fuse. (this is where we get the power for the Low-beams so they aren't drawing power from the high-beams)

Step 11
Reinstall the lights, close the hood and flick on your high beams

i bought one of the 4 hi mod "kits" from stylin trucks a looong while back that didn't use the relay. its laying around somewhere in the pile of moving boxes at the new house if anyone is interested in it.

i don't need it as my TYC HIDS already are 4 high modded out of the box

looks for the most part the same lol was just uber board and thought i would try it, it was cheap and easy

would anyone be interested in buying this as a kit for 6 dollars shiped? I went out and bought enough to make 10 kits. They will be pre made. Ready to just bolt/splice in and turn on

6 bucks shipped or 6 bucks plus shipping? lol.

im just going to send it regular mail so like 6.50(stamps) will be in a padded envelope.
