My girlfriend has smoked headlights from hella on her car. I was taking a look at it, when the head lights are on, and the high beams are turned on, the low beams turn off and the 194 bulb in the low beam smiley turns on... Anybody know why? I looked at the wiring and it looked like OEM wiring...

Really? I didn't think 90's were seal beams though... The wiring looks all factory, even the Hella wiring is factory plug and play.I got a fender roller now! LMK if you need me to roll your fenders or want to rent the tool from me locally.

Hmmm, if that was the case, then you are correct about the wiring then. The wiring in the low beams have 3 prongs going to them. 1 which is ground, another which has power for the low beams, then the 3 prong for when the high beams turn on and the "city" lights turn on in the low beams. Looks like I'm going to rewire it all so the low beams turn on with the high beams, and the city lights turn on when the side marker lights turn on.
Sigh, more work to do in the head light electrical section then. Thanks guys.I got a fender roller now! LMK if you need me to roll your fenders or want to rent the tool from me locally.
