Question, does the Headlight Relays go before and after the fuse?

With Daniels kit, you don't touch the old wiring. You take two dedicated 12 ga. lines off the battery, one to each relay. One high, one low beam. Each is fused 25 amp. I took a couple of wimpy 16 ga wires off the fuse connections over to my relays to operate them. There are 4 fuses, you only need a single wire from one of the hi and lo beams to operate the relays. The two white wires going from the bottom and heading to the right.

I put the two relays right above the washer pump and condenser fan. Used all 12 ga wire, probably overkill but Dan "recommended it". 14 would have pulled easier through all the existing grommets.

I'm hoping that "after" is on the bottom but probably no longer matters since the current draw is now "much" less if it was ever much to begin with. The old H5 plugs are just hanging in the buckets now.
