    [help] headlight switch

    Hey,
    My car's originally from NJ, but it was imported to Canada some time ago.
    During the import process, daytime running lights had to be "installed".
    I was told the low beams were wired to the ignition.
    I just bought a set of Bosch euro ellips. and I'm trying to go back to factory wiring.
    I need to remove the headlight switch in order to do so, and see the wires.
    I also recently bought a Bentley but it's not proving itself very useful in this area...

    Can anyone tell me how to take the headlight switch out and/or how to properly wire my headlights.

    Thanks alot.

    You probably do not need to pull the headlight switch. Your wiring has most likely been changed at the relay box/fuse holder/wire bomb AKA "Power Distribution Center".

    Most likely the wiring has been hacked by some wanna-be tech, so how about you cram yourself under your dashboard and snap a shot or three, with something better than a cell phone camera?

      I was kinda hoping you would answer, since your the wiring pro around here.
      I didn't think of that, I'll check out the relay box; and I'll snap a couple pics when I get the chance later today.

            Isn't that the fuse box?
            I didn't know they were the same thing...
