im guna be buying some aux. driving lights. It comes with its own relay and switch.

Im going to be re-doing my angel eyes, but this time im going to be doing all four head lights and using the aux. driving lights as my primary driving lights.

Ill have my angel eyes hooked up to my parking lights. When i wire up the aux driving lights i wasnt it to come on with the parking and the angels lights. My questioin is would it be wise to hook the realays for the aux driving lights using h3 bulbs to the parking lights as ive done with the parking lights?

How esle can i wire it so when i have only the parkng lights on im running the aux driving ligths, parking lights, and the angels.

btw i still want my regular head lights to be able to function in the same way as they would stock.

let me c if i understand

take power from the parking lights (which are 12v) and then use the power from the relay to power the angel eyes and the aux. lights right?

Yeah, that way you're not drawing too much power from the parking lights. Don't forget to put a fuse on your 12+ constant on your relay. Good luck let me know if you have anymore questions.

Any time you increase the guage of the wiring (thicker to thinner) you should use a fuse.

Yeah, standard SPDT relay. You cant get them at any parts store or partsexpress.com with the sockets that make it so much more easier to use.
