Make no mistake, these are NOT for urban driving! Use off road or on dark lonely roads where you always travel too fast and know that wildlife is just around the next corner....

An unexpected dividend of December 50+degree weather in Vermont has made cleaning up the 'to-do' list a reality!
Part one (of many):
Ah yes, finally the darkness is lifted. Finally there is enough heat from the chrome balls of the gnarly Ram to warm your hands at more than 5 feet away. Finally the darn swamp cow will shine on the darkest nights! And oh how I wait for the rude driver with his high beams blasting in my eyes...
And to think I thought those overwattage headlights were bright... ..
NOT
Yes, the aircraft lights have landed.... (on my front bumper)!!!
HOW SWEET IT IS!
Used the overhead console (garage door button cubby) to mount my illuminated switch from the shack. Cat 5 wire to the relay mounted at the passenger side battery. Operating the relay with a ground signal terminated (after the switch) at the overhead console. +12 for the switch's idiot light from a fused tap on the output of the new lamp relay(to prove the relay engages). +12 for the relay command from a tap on the high beam line. The result is the ability to kill the dangerous and rather illegal lights with the column mounted high beam / low beam switch. Also when the high beams are commanded on, the overhead switch's light will illuminate if these aux lights are still turned on. New lights only function when the high beam bulbs are powered.
======================================
LB = low beam, HB = high beam,
FL = oem fog light, AC = new aux lights
OHSW = new overhead switch for these new aux lights
===COMMAND== ==RESULT==
HB & OHSW on > HB & AC
HB & OHSW & FL on > HB & AC
LB & OHSW on > LB
LB & OHSW & FL on > LB & FL
As you can see, I did not give myself the ability to run both the fogs and these killer off road lights. No loss, as you can't even tell the fogs are on when the monsters light up the world around me!
=======================================
These are by no way the absolute brightest things available and I paid fairly short money for them due to the damage aux lights seem to suffer in my environment. The screws will rust and the rubber will crack, but when someone backs into them and they get crushed, no big deal!
Swamp cow/donkey detection device installed! (finally)
