Im wondering if anyone knows of a way to mod the headlight switch so i can have the high and low beams on at the same time on BD/G JDM head lights. The only thing i can think of is to make relay to the high beams and treat them as an auxiliary light. If anyone one knows of a way to mod the stock system i would love to keep the clutter down in the engine bay.

I'm sure I saw a how to on this, will see if I can find it.

Nah, can't find it now, I think it was on lgt but I found this here (https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?p=69009)...


I believe if you ground low beam (-) directly to your chassie, this should make low beam stay on when u flash or engage in high beam mode.

The reason is BD / BG headlight has switch ground, your low beam lose (-) when you switch to high beam. Try it and let me know.

^ yea that sounds right, it should be pretty easy, just keep searching the site, or maybe someone who has done it will chime in.

Correct... you take the low beam wire on each side and cut it... then ground the wire that is coming from the harness (not coming from the headlight.)

How does the system do supplying that much power? Does it handle it fine or do the lo and hi beams both shine a little dimmer when the hi beams are on?

I know on my application im using hids on both so that wouldn't be a problem. Gonna try to do this tonight, would anyone be inerested in some photos for a diy?
