Hi you all.. Guess most of you've maybe thought about this by yourself, put if someone haven't, I thought I'd shear this little "trick" with you all.

I've seen several posts around where people ask witch wire is highbeam and witch is lowbeam, and I was wondering that same thing myself when I was mounting my new lights last weekend. I didn't want to risk splicing into a wrong wire doing the 50/50 persent chansegame between the two.

Instead I hooked up everything, leaving just the wire going from the highbeamcord, via the switsh and into the relay unattached in the end that was supposed to be spliced into the highbeamwire. Then I unhooked the stock wires where they were attached to the lightbulb, turned on my highbeams and tried putting the end of the wire into the different holes. As soon as my new lights lit up my whole neighbourhood(damn, those Lightforces are bright) I knew what wire to splice into..

Hmm... You all have to excuse my bad english here, I just don't know what words to use all the time, but I guess you'll understand what I mean... Just thought I'd share..:D :D
