Hey,I'm in the process of fitting a Dominator Twin Round Headlight Set to the monster and need a bit of assistance.Seems theres no relay, is it o.k. to just fit and go,or a bit more to it.The headlight fuse is 15A and existing light only uses about 5A.The new setup is about 10-11A (2x H4 12V 60/55W) and the wiring is about 0.75mm or 1mm wire.I'd be thinking 10A is about the limit of this size cable.

Anyone being there done that???????????

Thanks
Joe

I wired mine straight up. No additional relay. Everything worked fine...

School. Brought them with me on Sunday when I went to Simsbury, but getting there later than I anticipated screwed things up. They are painted and re-assembled though...

Thanks for that lads,done and dusted.Only problem was the speedo cable is tight off the lights and slightly tilted the speedo,don't really want to move the bracket down.
