I spent yesterday and today installing the headlight relay kit I ordered from WCCC. The kit does not require cutting or modifying the original wiring harness in any way. So installation is pretty straight forward. The hardest part is deciding where to mount the relay packs and the circuit breaker for the kit.
I mounted the circuit breaker close to the battery so that I would have a short power lead. I had to do bit of trial fitting of the relay packs and power wiring until I got things where I wanted them. After deciding on the location I started working on the power wiring and circuit breaker locations.
Once I finished the preliminary installation, I tested the kit. The passenger side low beam bulb did not light, otherwise the high and low beams worked. So I replaced the passenger and driver side low beam bulbs at the same time and to make sure I had a matching set. The replacement low beam bulb is an H5006 part.
After replacing both bulbs, I did a quick check on the headlight bulb alignments and so far it looks good, need to test it at night.
