A simple alternative.....
using the stock wiring with a relay in each headlight bucket.
You only need to add one hot wire up and into each light bucket.
Use the original hot coming from the dashboard switch to power the
relays rather than the headlamp directly
oh and yes... the horn relay can handle stock headlamps. Halogens
vary...so I will not personally state yes or no to halogens on the stock
relay
