chuck, are yours 50w? You could investigate the 100w hi-output bulbs. Though be warned, I hear their heat output is so high that some consideration should be put towards it; ventilation for instance.
My stock candescents are only 35w I believe, I need to at least move onto halogen.

Sorry guys, been busy with work.
Yeah, the switch is an on-off-on 3 position. Pretty standard stuff, but does give the flexability to be legal when needed. There's a guy on ebay selling this switch and a piece of wire with instructions for about $30 plus shipping.
coolrays615- The diagram is great if you have a dresser with the accessory switch, but I have a heritage I couldn't find the orange wire.
Jbaker421 - You can pick up the power from the high beam but then the passing lights would only be on with the HB.
If you pick up the power from both the High and low beam (with the std 2 position switch) it will back feed the low beam and vice versa so you would have super bright lights all the time. Unless you install a diode in the system.
So far it has worked out great it's all together and absolutly no problems using the front marker light for power.
