Kev, if you're not adding relays, brown is ground for the
lamps.  Original ground pin on 9004 is switched on 9007, so if
you don't swap the wires, you get the (I think) low beams in
series instead of powered in parallel.  It might not matter if
your connector is powering relays, they probably WILL work
either way.

I haven't been keeping up here, but check one of my pages for a
non-destructive, completely reversible 9007 setup.  No relays
though.  If you need relays, Hosfelt had a good deal on 40A,
with covers and a nice tab for pop rivet mounting.  They also
had a nice in-line automotive fuse holder that matched.  Just
a few bucks each, and they only hitcha' a buck over ups for s&h.

I got some bar led's and lm3914's for the oxs readout too...ah,
now for some spare time to doit.

Found the order, it was in January, don't see the bar led's in
the current cat or web page:

      description page    item   price
     bargraph LED  106  21-195    1.85
          LM3914N   62            1.75
  12VDC 40A Relay   25  45-287    3.50
     Relay Socket   25  21-193    2.09
   ATC fuseholder   70  43-188    1.25
 T1-3/4 bulbs(73)    9  31-117    3.59
 28pin DIP socket   55  91-367    0.05
   27C64-2 EEPROM   62 27C64-2    2.75

There's some other goodies on the list too ;-/   Eproms and sockets
for the ECU, #73 bulbs to solder into the pc board dash lamp holders,
all kinds of good stuff!

No affiliation, just a happy customer.

Actually what I meant was what is the point of changing the
yellow and brown wires position in the headlight connector?
