I would never do it because it's silly but if I were to, I would add a 2nd switch to a relay that supplied power to both the hi and low beam wires at the housing. It would be important to diode-isolate the circuit and the wires from each other so the system still works normally when used on the road (with the factory switch. All you'd need is a couple of diodes, a 30A SPDT relay, a switch, a fuse and a black belt in the 12V arts.

You kids today and your crazy ideas. :dizzy:

This was posted on the original board. It's actually a quick project. I remember quite a few people did it but no one had any issues with heat. I'd like to hear from anyone that had this mod done long term.
