headlight relaying tech article Headlight Connector Spades



Or get real fancy and go to your local hobby shop and pick up a bunch of Deans connectors. Almost zero resistance, seals well, easy to use and easily unpluggable, in case you want to unplug your headlights for some reason. Not too expensive either.

If you are running higher-than-stock-wattage bulbs, I would recommend attaching the leads to the headlight prongs with ring connectors and tiny brass machine screws and nuts. 
These provide a much better connection than the spade type, which will have enough resistance (from corrosion) over time to overheat the wires' insulation near the connector.
You may have to drill the existing holes in the prongs out a small amount.
Personal experience...

Does anyone know where, I can find the large spades for the headlight
connectors?

Thanks...

Here's a link to relaying headlights:

I don't know about making all 4 lights come on with the
high beams, though. You may find your lights bright
enough with the relays.
