gday ive put 6 100w spotties on top of my 1993 toyota hilux and i have bought 6 relays and fuse holders to suit this application,just wondering if i can link all the relays together,so i can run just one switch for them,they are narva 12v 30amp 5 blade relays...and to wire them to the high beam and to a switch so they can only be on with high beam and i can turn it off at the switch also.does anyone have a diagram for this,cause it would save me alot of time and effort...

thanks

tom

ok thanks mate,yeah i bought 4mm to do the job,but ive been told now to atleast run 6 or 8mm from my power source to the relays,and the 4mm will be fine from the relays to the spotties?

this is what ive been told now so i guess its what ill be doing

thanks mate
