[QUOTE="NDO, post: 1178600, member: 22777"] Thought I'd update this...I used gneissday's method to tap in to the high beam wire. I used two relays, one powered from Aux 5 and triggered from the high beams and the other triggered from the first relay and powered from a 30A fuse from the battery, to feed all my forward lights (an Onyx6 10" lower grille bar and six cubes in fog pockets). I used three diodes (On Semiconductor MBR1645G) to prevent backfeeding from the three individual switches (I have the Onyx on Aux 1, four spot cubes on Aux 3, and two flood cubes on Aux 4) when I want to power individual light circuits. It rocks! The auto-dimming headlights work perfectly with this setup. On a semi-deserted road you have portable daylight and then it all shuts down when the rare oncoming car appears. [/QUOTE]
