[QUOTE="Hamm3r, post: 1121276, member: 21964"] Couple of things. If there are other drivers around, you do NOT need to run these. It doesn't matter how they're aimed, you're going to **** people off, hurt their eyes, and you're breaking the law. It doesn't matter if you're breaking the law when you're by yourself on a back road. But If you have a light bar on in traffic, I hope you pass a cop...even in my tall Raptor, I still hate people that run light bars, still hurts my eyes. As to how, just use a standard SPST relay, connect the 12V power to the upfitter, and energize the relay with the high beam wire. Just do a simple inline wire tap off the high beam, carry that to the relay coil. It will only fire the light when the upfitter is on and the high beams are engaged. Which is the only time you need a light bar on. There's no logical reason to run a light bar and not your high beams. But this also allows you to run high beams and no light bar by turning the upfitter off, should you have a reason to do that. [/QUOTE]
