The headlight relay and alternator or the best upgrade that I did to my car

Often not mentioned but the relay kit not only can make the headlights brighter it also prolongs the life of the ignition switch and the hi/lo beam switch in the steering column. WIn, win, win.

It was just my luck that I bought the version from IAP - right before they went out of business. It did not work. So tossed it. Will buy the one from AR. Pretty simple to install must have been a bad relay.

The universal 40 amp headlight relays are available at most auto parts stores in the HELP section for about $5. Advance Auto carries the Optronics and they have worked out quit well for me and probably cost me what I would have paid for shipping if ordered on-line.

Aww man, I bought that same kit from IAP about a month ago and still haven't tried it yet, got sidelined with master cylinder and shocks, then carb upgrade. Hopefully it was a fluke for you and not end of the line quality issues! Looking forward to being able to see at night now that the sun is setting earlier.

I found Gregory Smith's headlight relay kit to be extraordinarily well-constructed and literally plug-and-play.
