Gents,

Does anyone know how to wire the headlight relay harness to be a plug in type like the RJM harness?

I was at the junk yard and found some relays for cheap so I thought I would finally do this mod. I really don't feel like cutting and splicing now that I know there is an effective alternative. I just need to know how to do it. Any help or a diagram would be great.

Thank you,

G57

Why not buy one of those already-made harnesses? I doubt you could build one for that price.

Try here http://www.danielsternlighting.com/tech/relays/relays.html . In addition you may contact Pat, he use to make them. Don't know if he still does.

On the flip side, I built my own harness. I harvested 3 headlight harnesses from an 83-88 Ranger. The Ranger harness power is supplied from the drivers side then over to the passenger side, so the drivers head lamp has two 16 gauge wires running to each terminal. I used the dual wire terminals and wires on each headlight (I am running 84-85 headlights on my car) and the wires go back to a relay pack. Relay pack is triggered by the original headlight harness and power is supplied from the common power lug on the starter solenoid. I am also running circuit breakers instead of fuses coming from the common power lug. I am using a relay pack from a Ranger similar to the relay pack in this picture: http://www.rothfam.com/svo/images/wiring/RIMG0002.JPG Total cost was $21.
