There is a page \"Somewhere\" that explains it well, but, all that you need to do is put a switch in line with the headlight motors.

So, instead of the current flowing from the fuse box directly to the headlight motor, it flows through a switch as well.

This then allows you to break the circuit when you press the button/throw the switch, and return it to normal with another press.

Hope this helps. If your in Sydney, PM me and i will show you how i have done it on mine.

Regards

This can be acheived on the MX as well. Treat the raise headlight button on the dash like the 'shoot' button on a space invaders arcade game, and you will get the same result. Just have to push the button in and out as quickly as you can. Don't know whether it does any damage, so try it at your own risk :wink:


Wouldn't it look cool seeing a bunch of fives lined up doint the mexican wave! :lol:

Thanks STV. So do you flick the toggle to raise them and the amount they open depends on how long you held the toggle for?
