Headlights
Headlights
I saw a guy last summer who removed the high beams and replaced them with low beams, I don't know if he got new sockets from the junkyard for the Low Beam bulbs or if he ran a jumper wire and just unhooked the high beam switch, but it looked sweet! He also had fogs, so when the car was coming at you their were six lights. Anyone else ever seen this or done it? If so.....How?
Also, can you get a headlight with both high and low beams? It may be possible to keep your high beams on the switch, while running the low beam with the normal lights.

Running 2 low beams instead of a high and low... but whats the point in doing that??? I'm sure you could get low beam sockets and install them in place of the high beam ones, shouldn't be a problem as far as the wires electrical capacity goes.
You can buy those 3-pin plugs at most auto parts places, and after that, it's just a matter of running a short wire from the high-beam filament of the original low-beam housing to the new low-beam's high beam filament. The reason I wouldn't do that is that low-beam sealed-beam lenses' light dispersion patterns are designed around the low-beam only. If you had 4 low-beams, you'd lose a lot of the optimal dispersion that a dedicated high-beam lens has.
