Yeah I always thought everything stayed on.

Can I ask why though? Does your SC need to replace the bulbs in the lights? You could really use some HID's if you want your HI's on too.

I say clean your lenses real good and update to HID's. I am sure it can be done with some simple wirirng and a relay, to answer your question. How bright do you want them to be?

thread failure / Isn't it illegal to drive with your high beams on into oncoming traffic?

Okay maybe I shuold've made this post clearer.

I have a 92 Sc300 so i don't have DRL (where the high beam lamps are). so I converted the peanut light in the head light housing to the hi beam lamps...so now i have driving lights just like the 97+ models.

my hi beams bulbs/socket are now daggling so i would like to have it on with my Lows.

I'm thinking about relocating them down to where my "fog lamps" are.
so how do I have my hi beam on WITHOUT pushing the wand forward.

Please guide me to the right direction. Thanks

I used to drive my SC with the high beams on because I didn't know how to turn them off. No one has ever complained either, which always surprised me.

turn the lights to ON

Then flip the stick forward to turn on your high beams.

if you guys are so annoyed with his request why not tell him the answer and send him on his way so that the thread doesn't keep getting bumped.

oh wait this is CL. where people jump on the opportunity to make some one look stupid AND still not answer their question.

LOL...that's how I feel on CL...bimmerforums treated me better.
as for the flipping the stick forward...I knew that. I wanted my Highs go on with my Lows WITHOUT pushing the wand forward.

I'm not trying to be a ricer. I just wanted to use my HIGHs because they are just daggling behind the bumper...the HI-BEAM lamps are occupied as DRL lights. so with that being said...how do i get my Highs go on with my Lows WITHOUT pushing the wand forward.
