ok so now that i have taken a look at the setup here, its looks like i need a SPDT relay, which i have around rated at 30 amps, now the question is where am i taking the power from the starter from? should i use the starter wire somewhere in the cabin?

UPDATE: so i finally got the delay relay done after the delay of messing up my Passkey III system lol, works perfect thanks for finding it John
now my HIDs just flash for a second as I turn the key past on then turn off while the engine is cranking and then come right back on once the key is relased to the on poisition
now I don't cringe while watching them flicker against my garage wall like I used to

isnt there a manual override for this issue? the headlights eat the crap out of the battery when trying to crank my bonneville in cold weather. But there is the twist switch i use before i start here up to save up some juice for the starter lol

you can turn the light switch to parking lights only, that is the only way i know of, i wanted to keep everything so it was a simple as possible as possible, jump in the car and start it
