lighting relay upgrade. 200 1985

hi there, installed a relay setup for my h1-h4 cibies with 55/60W h-4s, and 55W h-1s four light setup on the 85 turbo with 10 guage feed to the (volvo) relays and 12 guage for the rest of the wiring. ran the cibies for a couple of weeks without the upgrade so i could determine how much the relays would help. this helped the low beams a little bit and the high beams turn night into day. i used daniel sterns drawings, dave shannons website, and some insight from lucid to help confirm my wiring. summary = i can see more safely to drive at night for sure. also on my test drive i had to flip the brights at a oncoming driver with his brights on, only once ;'}





85 turbo intercooler
25-25 sways, B&G springs, H.D. bils, strut brace, firewall brace, m.b.c.@10psi, cibies, 740 winshield squirters, vdo boost guage, halogen backup bulbs, more to come.
