Hey all, I'm adding another set of lightforce to the bumper of my jeep, they are wired to a switch in the "normal" way, using a relay and lighted switch, but I want to hook them to come on when the highbeams come on, this sounds easy but remember in Canada we have DRL's which turn the high beams (half the voltage) when the jeep is started, so the relay is clicking as soon as the vech starts, I can just use the switch to have it turned off until the headlights are turned on, but there has to be a better way. Any help?

I'm assuming you tried hooking the relay directly up to the headlights?  You may get better results going directly to the headlight switch.  I'm guessing that the switch drives a module that switches between DRL and normal headlights, so you should have a on/off signal at the swtich for headlights.
