The 4 high mod for the 99-02 trucks and 01-02 suvs is just to ground the yellow wire on either side of the headlight harness. I used a t-tap, a short piece of wire(maybe 8" of 16ga), simple crimp on ring terminal. I ran that to the bolt that holds the battery brace on. Used the t-tap on the yellow wire on the low beam. Turn on lows and flip on the high and the low should stay on.

Yep I did that one. Plus the resistor on the BCM to disable auto headlights. HID's taken care of. Then I added diodes and jumpers to the fog lamp and DRL relays so they stay on all the time. Works great!

FYI when I did switchbacks on my front turn signals my main brake lights quit working but my 3rd brake light wasn't affected. I had to add resistors to the front park lights to fix it. So if you add them check your brake lights.

For now I have 4 switchbacks upfront, 1 resistor for 2 bulbs. 2 resistors only.
Plan to add led bulbs in the rear with resistors but I'm gonna try a different signal relay instead , and hopefully that works for everything and I can take out the resistors all together

Never had underglow on any my vehicles, always wanted one. But it never makes it on my list of mods lol. Yea some call it rice from the fast and furious movies. But underglow is originally from the older lowrider and mini truckin days years before f&f. Those are the years I was grew up in.
So for now till I get a real kit I'll have this, not finished yet but it's the idea I'm going for. Later I'll buy a legit kit with multi color function with a more uniformed glow look. Yea I know kits are cheap but at $12 for 10 of these eagle eyes that's not bad for a diy homemade led kit. 2 or 4 on each side and 2 in front and 2 in rear.

As you can tell they're spot projectors style leds. So I'm trying to figure out a bracket to angle them and create a flood light that glows on the ground. But this gives an idea and visual, some of you might like this look too, I've thought about it, especially in white. But look how bright these bitches are even in the light 20161022_223918.jpg
