headlight relaying tech article Headlight Connector Spades

[rocco16v at netzero.net (L F)]

If you are running higher-than-stock-wattage bulbs, I would recommend attaching the leads to the headlight prongs with ring connectors and tiny brass machine screws and nuts. 
     These provide a much better connection than the spade type, which will have enough resistance (from corrosion) over time to overheat the wires' insulation near the connector.
You may have to drill the existing holes in the prongs out a small amount.
  Personal experience...

  Does anyone know where, I can find the large spades for the headlight
  connectors?

  Thanks...

  Here's a link to relaying headlights:

  I don't know about making all 4 lights come on with the
  high beams, though.  You may find your lights bright
  enough with the relays.
