I did this with the diode kit they are selling on e-bay. 5-7 dollars. no cutting wires no soldering and pretty simple. Could not see a reason for a relay. Mine works greatttt! Take Care!

Default head light mod with relay

I did it last weekend with the relay and this is the info I got from a prior thread (3 light mod dated 30 July 05)... It worked out great.

You will need to purchase a standard 4 pin, 12v relay, 4 pieces of 16 gauge wire about 8" long, 4 female crimp on spade connectors (for connection of wires to relay), 4 wire splice connectors.(they are usually blue and you simply insert the wires and squeeze with pliers, then fold back the protective locking cover)

Open the pod and locate the wiring listed below

Relay terminal #30 connects to Polaris green wire (low beams)

Relay terminal #87 connects to Polaris red wire (10 amp protected circuit at the lighter plug)

Relay terminal #86 connects to Polaris wire yellow wire (high beam)

Relay terminal #85 connects to Polaris brown wire (ground)

Use dielectric grease or liquid tape at all electrical connections to prevent corrosion.

They way this functions, is that when you select high beam, you are powering up the relay to give 12v to the low beam circuit from Polaris's 10amp 12v protected circuit. (No fuse needed) Enjoy.
