Yup, good link there

...and you can get extra effcient bulbs from about a £12 ea., local motorstore usually, that don't drop light quite so much with voltage

then there's all the contacts especially the bulbs insert, clean and apply bulb grease, NoCrode or vaseline.

But relay the big one, all makes a difference, use good copper wire if possible, 15A min from power side of relay to lights and 25/30A from fusebox to realy (if a single feed)
