To infernicus, thanks for the really nice diagram not being sarcastic I wish I could do them like that.
Also thanks for the link, I've been looking for ages for a switch like that.
BUT Oldspark and myself had already pointed the possibility of one relay and the need for ignition control.

Yup, Infernicus' setup eliminates the second relay, which is nice.
The downside for me is that I would need to tap the high beam circuit under the hood (near the lights), run it through the firewall to the new switch, and then back out to the relay.
Also with the switched 12V. While I can surely find a switched 12V source under the dash, it's very easy to get the source under the hood near where the relays will be mounted right at the factory power distribution box, without having to vampire into a wire, so another hot lead I need to run through the firewall.
I've always switched the hot leads before (as Infernicus suggests), but thought by switching the grounds I would have a cleaner install, and only have to run a two ground wires from under the dash, through the firewall, and to the front of the truck rather than three hots...
Switch is nice though. I like that it has a round bezel. Much easier to mount cleanly.
