I have seen the posts about getting the lows to join the high beams... great posts, good idea.

However, I hear there is a way to get the high beam to glow when the low beam is on. This would be VERY helpful at stopping the constant friendly comment "Hey Buddy, you got a headlight out..."

Any ideas?

It wont work as the lens is designed as a high beam. You will get people flashing you because of your bright lights! The bulbs are both 55w!

Thanks for the response. I have another idea, what if I put a bulb into the middle running light socket, I think that would make it appear a bit more symmetrical...

Or, a retrofit kit, I would even go so far as to change out the light set.

In Australia and the UK the light your referring to is in use for parking.
You can hardly even tell that light is even on once the ignition is on.





this is park only
