I did my dipped only and it makes main beam look crap and really yellow, you might aswell do both to get it good.

If you do dip and main, you'll have to your spots as well.

i havent go spots on mine but im guessing if i do main it will automaticly do spots for if/when i put them in

will get some pics up of parts ect all i got so far is is 2 relays some connectors and a few bits of wire lol

if i do main as well will just need to double what i got

original spots are spliced into the H4 connectors, so you dont HAVE to relay them they'll still work even if main headlight plugs are completly disconnected.  thing is the spots are still pretty damn bright even if not relayed, obv be brighter if you do. comes down to how often you use your main beams, relaying the dipped beams is prob gonna see the most benefid day to day, unless you live out in the countryside and do a lot of night driving.

Any thoughts on where the best place to buy all of the relevant compontents is?  I popped into Halfrauds the other day and saw that fused relays were about £7.50 each! 

A quick calculation, and I reckon that you are looking at £25 all in for compontents!  There must be somewhere cheaper...

[leeroy20vt]

i got mine from a local motorfactors if there still called that the relays were just under 3.50 each i spent 10.30 or somethink like that which didnt think was do bad

all u need is 30amp relays might be worth lookin on the bay

[weazgti]

Maplins.
Maplin relays £1.98 each
Fuse holder bout £5 i think
Connecters bout £3 for a bag.
Dunno bout wire because i was tight and used some i had allready.

go scrappy and aquire pocketfull of relays,   IMO your best off soldering to the relay tags and dipping in resin aftermarket rellays holders are crap and crimps can fall off.
