[s-cars] HID wiring

[JC]

Moi aussi Jason. I already get flashes once in a while w 35W's and (properly aimed) E-codes. IMO over-blazing the low beams is a diminishing-to-negative-gains / flawed-logic concept, but like uber-stiff springs and +2/+3 tire sizes, i have found there's usually no arguing w the "more is always better" view of those who want them (no offense Dace - just IMO). 

Full landing-light effect in high beams is another story however, and having lived in the countryside for long years at various times I do have sympathy for those who want / need max high beams... The OEM high beams are fine for me but if I lived in Montana or someplace I might go HID 35w or even 55w for those too... Where I live/drive now I seldom get a chance to use high beams anyway so it's not an issue... Adding aftermarket fog/driving beams under the bumper would more likely be my only lighting upgrade and even that prob not on the menu.

That being said, the volts(checked using the radar detector voltmeter feature) drop ~.1-.2 volts when the low beams are on and ~.2-.4 volts with the high beams on. That seems good to me...
