Re: 4 headlight mod
Is the mod worth the time? Does it make that much difference at night?

Re: 4 headlight mod
Jayson, Takes a bit of getting use to but, now I couldn't imagine not having the mod. It's great because I found that when you flicked to High Beam, in the stock setup, you lost a little bit of close vision. Now, after the mod, you get what's close and what's really far away.
I wired it easily enough so that if I didn't like it I could just de-Jumper what I had done.

Re: 4 headlight mod
What i like best about this mod is the added brightness. I have screwed up eyes ,my left eye is near sighted and my right eye is far sighted and each eye sees the same thing at different levels. This makes driving at night on the highway with brights on a little tuff because my right sees great at distances with the brights, but my left which focuses closer and lower sees blackness and this really gives a screwy feeling especially when both eyes try to focus on the same point. With this mod it allows my high and low beams to be on at the same time, making both eyes happy lol, not to mention makes it safer. Oh and you all cam breath a sigh of relief, i have never been in an accident and i do not get this sight problem with just the low beams on lol.

Fog light override
Can something like this be done to keep the fog lights on when the high beams are on?

Re: 4 headlight mod
OK before I get burned. Somebody pointed this out to me that the Fog lights may be programmed to stay on with the High Beams but, it must be programmed at the dealer.
To avoid that. Throw out your stock fog light switch and put in an aftermarket one. Then wire your fogs with a relay to come on whenever you want them too. I've got mine wired to a S/W'd 12V source so that as soon as the Truck is in the run position I have full control over my Fogs. Trouble is they don't throw a lot of light, I'm shopping for better replacements the moment they burn out...Can't believe I spent $145 (CAN) on such crappy lights...

Thanks
Sounds good, I think I'll try it when we get a warm day.
This voids out the warranty I guess right? |

Re: 4 headlight mod
I installed a set of factory fog lights but then found out that it's 100.00 for the dealer (spits on floor) to program then into the computer. Is there a way to just have them come on with my high beams?

is it?
Is it $100 dollars (spits on floor again..) to program the foglights to work or to program them to turn on with the high beams?
