the blade fuse panel is nice, but i am not sure if i want to take away from what porsche did, even though it dose have its short comings.
yes, a week spring could also cause resistance. that will usually show up more as an intermittant issue.

A very good point or two! Relays can help take some of the load off the fuse panel and switches. So, after some requests, this is what I offer to those who want headlight relays. Picture take with a cell phone, please excuse the fuzz! The relays are a high quality unit made in either the USA or in Germany and come from my local NAPA store. By using a socket for their wiring, should a replacement be needed later it is simply a matter of unplugging, remove one screw, replace the relay and plug the socket back in place. No worries about which wire go where! The board comes with the relays (mostly) prewired. Attach one ground, provide a lead to the battery and connect the headlight low and highbeam leads and you're done!
