Headlight Relay is Well Worth It

So, I installed the headlight relay kit from our host for 25.00 and it took about 10 minutes to install and I wish I did it sooner. I did not realize that all of the juice for the headlights was flowing through the switch itself. Not the lights are a little brighter as well since the juice is flowing from the battery directly to the bulbs.....
For the price and ease of installation it is a no brainer, get it now to protect your existing headlight switch from burning out and costing 160.00 to replace.

I put it in for the insurance of it. Cheap and easy, not to mention it put me over the top to get free shipping on my order at the time. The shipping was going to be around $25 so you could say I got it free.

Great mod, and a cheap fix from our host... I can't remember, but I think I cut back the insulation too far and the connector did take the fist time, just follow the directions...
