I'm considering the mod again
Yes, you wire the shutter to the high-beam bulb, meaning it will activate (open) when you press the high beam stalk. On normal mode (dipped beam) shutter is closed and releasing only half of the light from the reflector but the xenon bulb is still light up at 100% of its power. Shutter just shapes the beam, not changing light source, if that is any better explanation?
