They are not plug and play. H4 has different pins than a sealed beam. Alot of people repin the connector or use an adapter but with the added load from H4s you really should add a relay system as to not overload the switch. If you do a search on TGO theres wiring diagrams on adding relays and I think Summit now offers a relay kit. I got my relay wiring mixed up since Im not good with it, the relays work fine but it shows high beams as being on when low beams are on.

Subtotal: US $54.00
Shipping and handling via USPS Airmail Parcel Post: *US $35.00
Shipping insurance (optional): *US $2.00
Seller discounts (-) or charges (+):
US $0.00
Total: US $91.00
shipping was a rip and all you have to do is re pin the two high beam connectors and cut some metal away from the back of the bucket an they go right in but i am making a new wiring harness for them so they get full voltage

yea you just use two relays and you use the hight and low beam signals that go to the lights already for the exciter wires for the relays atleast thats what i am going to do

I repined the connectors the first time and like many on TGO had issues overloading the switch. If you do the upgrade do it properly. If someone is good with wiring them could make good money making kits and selling them on ebay or TGO. Just make a plug and play relay kit with the correct wire length etc. Maybe someone will make me a proper one lol for a few $$. Doh beat me to the diagram lol

REALLY nice, if you decide to start making pre-done relays let me know as I think I'm going to pick up a set of these.
