If you put 4 lights up there ( and that looks good on a fenda ) You would need 3volt lamps. The wiring would have to be welding flex.
Or do they mean that they must opperate in series with the high beam? As opposed to being connected in series?

I would suggest a non-electrically savvy individual wrote that, or they mean some round about way.

Just parallel them. running them series is the best way to cause wicked electrical faults. try getting a 9v line touching the body :S

cheers!

lol i dont even have mine on a switch, just link your relay to the back of a headlight, hit the high beams, and its daytime.

I would guess if your talking spots they would need to be wired as the high beams and go on and off with the high beams and have a separate on off switch, good heavy wiring and a nice big relay
