I used a triple 30A relay setup on the right inner fender.
Came off the Alt to a break out box (RS plastic) and split the feed into 3 on a steel ground bar from HD. Same for master ground.
Used the existing signal (12v+) from each headlight to trigger the relays.

Advice, get a good fuse bar (like the Car Audio folks use) 'cause it will delete one of the major headaches which is corrosion in the in line fuse holders that Dan sells. The enclosed fuses are mountable to the innder fender as well.

I used 10 ga Amplifier cable w/ a ring terminal at the Alt and stranded Marine 12 ga after that for all wiring. Painted the area around each connection with liquid rubber insulation for luck.
