is there a bambi mod for low beam projectors?
Just as the title states. I think a bambi mod should just stop the high beam relay from killing the ground to the lows. I have projectors and would like for the hid lows to remain on when they are on when I turn on my highs. But during the day when the lows are off and I need to flash my highs, I don't want the lows to flash.
think that makes sense. Any ideas?

Do you have a bi-xenon HID kit, or just the single lo beam kit with a halogen high beam?
The standard Bambi Mod should do just what you want... I'm about to go do it myself.

Do you often find yourself flashing your headlights during the day?

I flash my highs all the time. With tinted windows it's pointless to wave people out. And with these heat wave I always have the a/c on.
I have a 9006 hid kit and halagen high beam.
doesn't the standard bambi mod only affect the fogs? I would actually prefer my fogs go off when the highs are on. Since I believe NJ is a max of 4 forward lights. Even though hids aren't legal, I would at least like to seem legal. lol.
I'm thinking the standard bambi mod, but on the low beam relay instead of the fog relay.

The high beam does not kill the ground to the low beams, if that is what you mean by "the high beam relay from killing the ground to the lows."
The high beam element is where the fog lamp derives ground from, which is what the URL above explains to change.
If you are talking about operating the low beam headlamps with the high beams, you would need a few relays to make this work.
Quick search on having the high & low beams on at the same time would have produced this diagram ( from 01-10-2010 ).

what would the above diagram do? from looking above I was about to post and ask if I could just run one relay since the lows are HIDS. But I noticed the right relay is not tied to a ground. So I'm confused as to what the two relays are doing. It looks like the two fuse points 26,28 are just seperate low beam fuses, but fuse 16 looks like it's the high beam fuse. So to me I would think this setup is making the low beams come on when you turn on the lights and is also making the high beam switch turn on the lows. Which is what I don't want. I also get confused with that 5 pin on the relay. So I may be wrong and the relays at rest are just allowing the lows to stay on and the highs don't interfere with the on/off state of the lows.

I want lows and highs to be fully independant. One does not do anything to the other. So if my ligts are off and I flash my highs, the lows stay off. If I turn on my headlights, and then turn on the highs, the lows stay on. lows are hid, and highs are halogen.
The fog lights are what I would like to stay stock, I want them to shut off with the highs, just like stock form.

They are separate circuits now, actually 3 total. 2 for the low beams, and 1 for the high beams

He wants to be able to flash-to-pass without turning the lows on (since he has HIDs in the lows). Also, when he has the lows on at night, he wants to be able to flip the high beams without it also shutting off the lows. If I'm reading the circuit right, the lows would turn on if he flashed to pass.
Basically, operate like the 03-06 Expys do.

I've been searching and not really seeing other people with projectors wiring them the way I want. I've though about wiring a relay to the parking lights and that's what would turn on my lows, but when I lock and unlock the truck they flash. though I do have a ten second delay relay I could use. I just would prefer to not have to use it.
