There is a separate harness for the headlight plug, and a relay kit for each headlight..

I'm guessing the kit will have a hot wire to run to constant +12v, and possibly a ground... my thinking is the original headlight plugs will trigger the relays.

If the bulbs are stock wattage (55/60) it's basically a swap for the existing parts, but adding a relay kit alone will make the sock headlights work much better. It's even more dramatic with H4 conversions & it's more or less a requirement if you step up the wattage.

I was going to tell you to contact Daniel Stern. He sells top notch lighting upgrades, but it's quite a bit more for the housings alone than what you're looking at...
