4 Light highbeam

I was wondering how hard it is to make it so that when I turn on my high beams, the other lights (low beams) stay on, and the high beams come on. What wires would i splice/ground/jumper/what ever? Thanks!

I am pretty sure that when you flip the high's on, the low's turn off. I'll check again when i go outside though

many of the old general motors products used dual filament low beams and single filament high beams.

I stand corrected - I never really looked, I assumed since my freind did it to his suburban, then I was in the same situation. Iwas wrong.
