[V8] Headlight question

[Tony and Lillie]

The headlight warning system works on resistance, I believe. So, if the 
resistance of the bulbs is significantly different than the resistance of 
the relays (about 200ohms each) then it will trigger the warning. I simply 
wired past it on my car. I had installed relays for the stock DOT's on the 
V8, and installed 100W high beams also. Didn't want to burn up that 
(expensive) headlight switch.
