Ken (others),

Where is the best place to tap into the old 9004 headlight system when converting to an H4 setup with relays, heavy wire, etc? I know you power the relays off the battery (or applicable power point) and send power to the H4 sockets from the relays. But what's the best way to tell the relays when to turn on/off? Do you just cut one of the old 9004 plugs and use those wires, or should the relay input come from farther back in the stock headlight system?

Thanks--

(And I have, as of yesterday, a full used Cibie E-code setup in great shape, sourced in pieces from eBay France and Germany)
