Hi guys, I've just installed a pair of spotlights on my EL. I've set it up with a relay, all works fine...I have a trigger wire for the relay but I'm struggling to find a high beam wire to hook it up to....anyone have any ideas?? Really appreciate any help anyone can offer...

When I did mine, (I wanted mine off the parkers - BA XR Lights) I tapped into the wire on one of the parking lights. You could do the same with the high beam wire.
