you're welcome guys
crazy - since you changed your sig, it doesn't make sense where it says 2 ladies and you have the speedo pic now![Smilie](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
also, maybe take some of the words out? it's a bit long (I can't complain though because my pics are pretty big too)

Lights don't have the same values as a regular load, they change resistance depending on the conditions, and with a 12V steady applied to it, a 55W bulb will ALWAYS draw 5A of current (It's actually a little less, don't want to break out my calculator heh)
Hrmm, but actually, now that I think about it, mebbe you are right... Because with a lower voltage (i.e. in series) it would increase the current applied to the entire circuit...
Hrmmm, nevermind, you're right, for the most part, and I'd have to see a schematic to know where the point of diminishing return is.

Bulb sizes in the corner lights are 1157 and 194's. Big bulbs = 1157, little bulbs = 194's...
If you wanna be like me you'll order the matching bumper lights too. Those are 1156's.
