Default headlight Mod

There was a mod a while backwhere the high beam comes on when the light switch is inthe low and both the high and low is on when the light switch in on high?
If so where is this wiring diragram of the mod at?
I seem to have misplaced my link...
Thanks
Paul

I would be careful of that Mod. You wiring will be drawing the wattage for two headlight beams. Your socket will most likley over heat, and cause you troubles. I know there is a mod to keep your spot lights on while your high beam is on.

You can do it - it's in the electrical section IIRC. To me, it ain't worth the hassle. There's no issue that I can see with the wiring circuit, since HD sells a dual-beam headlight kit that runs both lamps with the high beam "on".

I would try the Silverstar H4-ST bulb first BEFORE I messed with wiring - GREAT $20 UPGRADE...!
