Volks, I did the relay stuff. Tapped into the wires after the dimmer switch like some websites have on their instructions. http://catalog.com/susq/hella/headlamp.htm Also list member Ken Lewis's site has the dimmer tip also. That's where I got it. I ordered the regular hella h4's with the standard bulbs. After I put them in I started wondering if my insurance company (state farm) would have a problem with these 'not 50 state legal' lights. I called my State Farm agent and they didn't have a problem with them. I imagine they are for any thing that would reduce the deer/car collision claims. I read a website from a vendor and he claims that headlights are governed by State and local county laws. He says the H4's are specifically legal in 4 US states. Here is a website with some information ( I don't know if he's right or not!)
I called my county sheriff and they didn't have a problem with them. In fact the State Patrolman I talked to was quite interested in where he could get a set for his wife's car. We have quite a deer problem in Nebraska ( or from the deer's point of view there is a people problem). Happy Motoring, Mark Ingalls 85 GL w/ Agilis tires, digitool, H4's, new fuel ones, new coolant hoses. Now I just need a decent sound system and also get those 'torn boot' ball joint's looked at.
