It looks to me the stock headlights use a dual element bulb. I was thinking of disconnecting the high beams and putting them on a dedicated circuit to have them on at the same time as the low beams. I understand they run on a pulsed signal. Will this work? Will the bulb overheat and explode in an inferno of flames?

A lot less hassle to just run a set of auxiliary lights.

I'm no electrician but if it is a dual element bulb, I feel like both of them being on together would produce a massive amount of heat.. More than the glass is made to handle

Again, not an electrician, just thinking out loud

I agree 100%

Yep that's why they don't do it from factory

Get Truck-lites and be done with it.

To have both beam patterns on at the same time. I may still do this to have them on with the fogs. Do they NEED a pulsed signal?

How bout a 6min. fix? Piaa Xtreme White plus(color is 4000k) H-13. Standard bulb=65H/55L Watt. Piaa is equal to 85H/75L Watt. For same draw of power(65/55W). About $40 a bulb; in two pack=$79.99 cheap (relative) upgrade. I have 'em & noticed a nice improvement. Would recommend :-) & say money well spent!

Highs on with fogs is doable, but running both high and low beam with the stock wiring size i see the POSSIBILITY of burning up a switch or as you said burning up the housing or bulbs. Might also need to upgrade your alternator, im not sure how much amperage is left on the system... Ill do some digging. I know it is possible but it may take quite a bit of doing
