Default running with both headlights on

i was talking with some friends that said it might be possible to set up the headlights so they both run on dim and both on hi. havent actually seen it yet or heard of someone doing it. i looked at them briefly and am not sure how it could happen. im not to electrically inclined but can figure it out with instructions. anyone know how to do it?

Yeah its easy to do, look at the back of your lights towards the top outer corner on each there is a cross head plastic adjuster simply turn it anti clockwise to lower the beams height and clockwise to raise it. I focused mine on the garage wall to determine whether it was adjusted low enough not to blind a the cagers.
I only adjusted the full beam and left the normal headlight alone, thanks to MGA_Oden for puttin the original idea across.

the link above is excellent i did it but to both dip and main and light is great you just have to use two relays and a new power cable or you will damage your wiring and then make the bulbs fit which only take a few minutes the total conversion took my lunch hour to do and looks great [sm=exactly.gif] only do this though if you are good at electrics it is not hard but but if you are unsure get help or it could end in tears
