Hi would like to know how i can wire up a relay with a switch to turn on things like my Dash Display, and other 12v accessories in my race car. would it be better then just hard wiring it to a switch direct to the 12v source?
Also what is the best way to wire up a window wiper with a relay?? the wiper motor has 2 speeds would it be best to wire it with 2 relays?
WRT to wiring up headlights, i've found a few diagrams saying this is how you're supposed to wire the lights up, since this is jsut the race car, i only need normal beams ( if that makes sense) and not high beams/brights etc... how can i wire this up..
Thanks in Advance

John- I am not sure in his application, but in the past my wipers have been 4 wired- ground, low, high, and park. Otherwise it looks as easy as you msde it
