I tried the search feature and found this. This isnt the only way to do it though. I remember someone saying something about jumping two terminals in the fuse box with a paper clip.

(Maybe I'm mistaken and this is a stereo question.)

I thought he was looking for info about having all the lights on at the same time. (I could be mistaken though.)

On a Camaro, you want to connect the yellow wire going into the dimmer switch (in the turn signal switch) to the tan wire coming out of it. This will keep the low beams on when you switch to high beam. You should be able to find the wires someplace at the base of the steering column. Don't cut the wires - just splice them together - or you will lose your headlights all together.

You can't do this mod on a Firebird but you don't need to because all four lights are on when you switch to high beam anyway.

I misunderstood the question. I thought he was refering to running some components up front and a subwoofer off the same amp in try mode. I did not realize this was a heak light question.

How would I wire in some relays to keep from having a meltdown with this mod? Is there a good, inexpensive ($20-$25) that works?

There is a lot of info over on www.ls1.com/forums, especially in the archives. Do a search for "headlight mod" . I got a bunch of hits, but I couldnt get into the archives becuase I am not a member. Which is of course where the most relevent information is located.
