HOWEVER, there was one huge problem that bugged me. 2 nights ago when i tried to do this...i connected the ballast to the bulb...it DID NOT WORK...but i tried to use the relay wires, to connect to the battery...it worked! but however tonight, i plugged in the ballast and bulbs it worked perfect fine...so i was liek screw the relays...lol...i installed them...n it works great..i love the color, it looks awesome. anyways, i wanna know WHAT DOES THE RELAY WIRES DO EXACTLY?! i mean what exactly is better if i used it.

Did you use the same location for the ballast that was described in the original instructions on this thread? Just curious...
