Tom, Sorry I didn't receive it. I have been having a horrible time with my MSN ISP and seem to receive e-mail on a random basis, I now suspect I don't receive most.
Try and send again and let's see what happens. And drop me a private note to my Rennlist mail box, just to make sure and I will get back to you tonight.
I have to switch ISPs, because this is unacceptable missing all these messages.

Thanks Iceshark for the headlight info. I did in fact see your discussion about this very topic after I posted this. But the additional info has been helpful. It was interesting to learn that the stock system doesn't use a relay. Although I don't like to cut up stock things like wiring, relays for the headlights would really be a good idea.

Zermatt, you are welcome.
This headlight kit I am proposing wouldn't cut up the stock wiring at all. It would be plug and play using the existing wiring and plugs to operate relays on and off, in a seperate headlight subsystem. So the entire headlight load is removed from the stock electrical system (outside of a couple watts to switch the relays). Besides much better lighting results, the rest of the car's electrics/voltage are improved because they are not competing with the lights out of the fuse/relay board.
