Default JDM in UK headlight thoughts...

I have a JDM 4th gen Prelude, but live in the UK, so when I put on my side lights only the tiny, teeny lights right on the outside of the car light up, put on my headlights and the bigger filament on the H4s lights up. This is my question..... how can I wire up the smaller of the two filaments on the H4 bulb to light up when I put on my sidelights, and would I have to use a bigger fuse, in the fusebox( and is this safe??) when I connect them up to the sidelight circuit....????

Any help will be greatly appreiciated...xx

you would need to use a relays in order to accomplish what your trying to do(i think your basically try to activate the smaller filament on the h4 bulbs with your side markers). when does the smaller filament turn on?

My smaller filaments come on for dipped, and stay on for full-beam - after thinking about it more... I wonder whether its not wired up like its meant to be? haha

Thanks for the help
