the headlight switch will not handle the additional current, you must use a relay for the additional set, but what is the point? you can get 100 watt H4 bulbs that are blindly bright.

Hey I'm fixin to install some lights and I want to run them with a relay and recomendations on the type or style? I'm assuming that a 12 volt auto relay won't do the trick. My lights are 24 volts and 70 watts each, and I'm wanting to run 2 lights on each circuit.

Thanks for this cool idea! I just received my A3 headlight/turn signal assemblies from AA truck parts. Also ordered some of the aircraft landing light bulbs from
"Popacom". I am going to mount the aircraft bulbs in my standard headlight buckets (in the stock location), add a switch and relay to use them as auxillary spot lights.
I will mount the A3 assemblies on the fenders ala' A3 and run my stock headlight/turnsignal wiring to them. I think this will work great, especially on a bobbed deuce
with 4" of lift sitting on 52" michelins (it will lower the headlights a little closer to the road). Now, just need to finish widening the wheels for my 4 new tires leaned
up in the garage and finish up a few details on the air ride. It seems like this site is giving me ideas for my truck Waaaaaay faster than I can complete them. Thanks SS!
