    Coming home at night yesterday I was driving through and area with lots of deer, elk, moose, so i wanted my brights on as much as possible. With all the oncoming cars I was constantly reaching up with my left hand and turning the brights off and on....

    Got me thinking about my old 79 F 150 that had the bright light relay mounted on the upper left corner of drivers side floorboard, in the form of a round, inch wide button, that you just pushed down on with your foot to turn the brights off and on. I think its pretty convenient, as well as safer while driving through curving, icy mountain passes.

    Not the best at wiring schematics, so I wouldnt no where to begin to install something like this, figured maybe someone here has done or could do this MOD???

    That probably wouldnt be very hard to wire. Just find the highbeam power wire, cut it, and add a button that is set to lose the connection when the button is pressed.
