I did this to Chris=E2=80=99 TR6 using AAW=E2=80=99s relay kit. I have =

the same.

The direct answer to your question, from that article, is:

=20

=E2=80=9CThe U/R and U/W wires (one each) run from the dimmer switch to =
a double snap connector sleeve near the lower front valance on the =
driver side. There are two similarly colour coded wires running from =
each double connector, one to each side, left and right. You can remove =
the wire coming from the dimmer switch and place the included single =
snap connector sleeve on this wire. The other two wires and the double =
connector can be removed. You can store these wires, connectors, and =
headlamp connectors in the event you ever want to revert to the original =
wiring. [CONCEPT: When the headlamp switch is turned on, power will be =
provided to the low beam (U/R) relay or to the high beam (U/W) relay =
depending on the position of the dimmer switch.]=E2=80=9D

I am happy to share more details in that article.

Hi all,

=20

I recently purchased a headlight relay kit from Moss and am having =
trouble finding the end points of where to plug it into the existing =
harness. The instructions are somewhat clear but I cannot seem to find =
the "plugin points" for the high beams/low beams. If anyone has =
installed one and has insights I would greatly appreciate any feedback, =
as I am definitely wiring challenged.

=20

Thank you,
