I have a set of 150 watt sealed beams for inners on my street car and they
are greeaat!! Cost me about $40 from auto shop and wired a fused relay into
the line and works a treat, can be tricky though depending how the relay
earths. Mine earthed on the base of the relay and this caused the probs
because of the way datto light always have power and are switched to earth
when switched on so we insulated the base with some rubber tube and put
nylon sleaves between the screws and the base.
my two cents worth
