The rest is just to pretty it up...

I prefer the 50A Circuit breaker to the fuse because if the fuse blows you have to have another one... the CB will rest itself.

There are a couple of diagrams already posted, and I have my own, but with the information provided you should be able to make you own.

The nice part about this parts list. if something goes TU, you can just plug in your factory harness and limp home with crappy lights... no cutting, no mods to the harness.

hth,

i make my own.only thing i buy from the store is the relays and the plugs for the relays and if i need it ,some wire.
i also have mine set up so i can use high and low beam at the same time if i want.
IMO one of the best things you can do for these older ford trucks and cars.

you can ford a river or stream and get to the other side, if you dodge it you will not, and if you drive a chevy to the levee it will run dry and the music will die.
