Electrical questions:
I want to wire the top light bar to come on with the high beams. Does anybody know which wire I need to tap (color) and where it is located ?

At the headlamp Lt green Black or Dk Green White (depending on side). I would use this as the power trigger circuit for a relay. I would not recommend connecting either of these directly to the lamps. They are on 10 amp fuses for one, the other is they are only 0.5 wires.

Also, did the jumper wire mod for driving lights and now found a pair or 5" hallogen H3 55W lights that fit perfectly in the round openings (some custom brackets will need to be made, but not bad at all).

Is it safe to tap into the current harness on each side and splice in the new lights or should I run them through a relay because of amp draw and use the current wires for trigger ? I would recommend a relay, just to play it safe. Not that high of amps, but I always believe in playing it safe.

Is there anywhere under the dash a 12V connection that is "clean" enough for wiring a CD changer controller ? I did mine with the a tap on the fuse box and I get the engine whine in the radio. I tried a gound loop isolator and it did not help much. Need a clean source. Is there one ?

Did you try a filter coil in the positive circuit?

Thanks
