Default How do you wire the high beams to stay on by themselves?

Does anyone have their high beams wired to stay on by themselves, or have city lights inside of the high beam housings? If anyone has pictures of this done on their car or info on how to go about doing it i would greatly appriciate it

All canadian model cars are like that....
go up to Canada and get a CDN model
saving hassles......

i have learned my lesson of not messing around my wires....
my advise to you will be ... leave it alone

That's weird, my Integra and all my friend's Integras can have both sets of lights on.

Unless we're talking about something different here.

So swap the plugs between the low beam and high beam bulbs. Should take you about 60 seconds, maybe 5 minutes if you're really not mechanically inclined. You will need to trim the little ridge of plastic off the bulb's connector so the plug will slide on. Look at the plug on a 9005 and a 9006 bulb side by side and you'll see what I'm talking about. Xacto knife or dremel makes very short work of it.

Now you too can look like you're driving a Saturn.

You would have to find the relay the powers both beams, then cut the wire that powers your regular lights. its probably by your switch on the steering wheel. Look in your helms manual I'm sure it will have a wireing diagram in there somewhere. My opinion is dont mess with that. It will become a big trouble.

you cant do anything with usdm cars. Cnd cars have them on in the center as daytime running lights. If you swap the plugs, the highbeam housing doesnt have a lense so you will always look like you have high beams on. Basically leave it alone its not even worth it. I took my whole bumper of just to try to figure this out. If you really wanted to do it-maybe you can ask someone in canada to see who their cars have it riged up.

You can definitly rig something up for some low wattage bulb to go in the high beams, so you have all for lights on....its not worth it in my book.
