Powering your headlights via relays will increase their brightness by a third. Chrysler used minimum sized wire to operate the head lamp circuit which after forty years of corrosion lowers the delivered voltage to the lamps. Low voltage = less lumens emitted from lights.
I installed Dan’s headlight relay system last winter, and the lights are much brighter. I had previously improved the cars wiring, replaced the bulkhead connector and all its brass connections, and still the relays improved headlight brightness considerably.
Installing a relay system relives a lot of current flow through the bulkhead connector, and headlight switch, a good thing for an aging Mopar electrical system.
