Complete Upgraded Headlight Wiring Harness?

So im looking into upgrading the wiring from my stock headlights to some thicker gauge wire and would also like to get the H4 housing as well.

Is there anywhere where I can buy a complete harness with everything ready to bolt on? I seen that 4crawler use to sell some but doesnt anymore.

Or maybe a site that sells a kit with all the connectors, wiring and relays in one package?

I seen this on ebay would this work?

Universal? I think not. Toyota's headlights are a switched ground not switched power. Unless someone corrects me, that harness won't work not without modifying something on it. Follow the many guides on here and make your own.

I've also been waiting (patiently) for 4crawler to start making harnesses again.
Found this site just this weekend. http://www.rallylights.com
The switched ground harness is what you want.

$96.94 I made mine for less then $20 and that's only because I bought full rolls of wire and didn't use nearly all of it.
Maybe I should start making them and selling em.

Yes, a lot of scratch for a wiring harness. I am definitely going to be researching your recommendation xxxtreme22r. Or, as you suggested, you could make some and sell them for a decent profit!! I would certainly be interested.

Wait let me see if I have the right.....

An upgraded switched ground harness is ALMOST $100 :yikes

A GOOD relay and factory made plug is ~$12-15, need 2 so that's say... $30

Now one needs what 8' X 3 on the L-O-N-G side of 12 ga wire, different color if your all metro-sexual (I ked, I ked)
At least make the ends w/ different color tape:deal
That's about $ 18 , I counting for getting the good stuff not the cheap junk from Bombshack.

Protect the wires w/ something... I like anything that protects the wires and is something laying around the shop.
IF one MUST have something that looks cool add in $10 for wire loom (your choice of color)

I'll even toss in an extra $5 for tie ties and 2 self tapping metal scres for the relays.

Whats that? $60

Wow went really high, but built it mil spec

That and one gets to know their truck that much better.

one could do it at wal mart for under $30
