Review on πŸ”Œ Painless Wiring 30823 S/T 10/15 Headlight Relay: Effortless Installation for Improved Lighting Performance by Jared Tovar

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect set but not painless on my wallet

This set does exactly what it is meant to do. All four headlights now come on when I press high beam. Quality wiring is color coded similar to car wiring. The relay is Hella, that's top notch. Follow the simple instructions and you should be done in under an hour. It took me two hours because I decided to solder and shrink the connections. I recommend you do the same and throw away the teas. You'll work, but it's not a professional job for me. As far as DRL compatibility goes, it doesn't seem to be affected by this product, which is a good thing. They still turn on during the day and the lower voltage to run them doesn't seem to activate the relay. If you've looked into the headlight system and understand a little about electricity, you'll understand what I'm talking about. I am giving this product four stars solely because of the price. $85 is a hell of a premium, and I'm stuffing someone else's wallet in a big chain. I know companies are supposed to be profitable, but a hole this deep is ridiculous. If you're electrically savvy, you can make this kit yourself for $25 or less! I'm an electrician so why did I buy it? Parts and accessories just aren't always available where I live and brighter headlights were needed here and now. However, the kit is installed, I am happy with it and will work on maintenance to make up for the loss.

Pros
  • Part number: 30823
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
