Thank You guys. Not needed anymore. It was annoying me how only one side's high beam was working so I took my multimeter and started investigating. The DRL was working but as soon as i'd flick the high beam the DRL would go off and high beam would work on driver's side. Checked the voltage on the fuses and it was a solid 11.83 Volts. I figured it had to be the relay and one which has an option for both sides. It was the relay on the drivers side screwed to the fender. Opened the relay and cleaned the contacts. Ta daaa it works fine now. Hoping somebody will have to use this someday and not hotwire directly from the fuse box. Nothing beats OEM wiring
