'87 4kq: headlight switch

[Huw Powell]

Relay the parking light as well - that circuit has smaller pins and 
carries quite a load - especially on "flash to pass" where it powers the 
high beams, IIRC (though if they are relayed that's not such a big deal).

Also check the connector, they get melty and make things worse.

So, yes, relay it all.
