Well finally got to the bottom of the problem with no hi-beams. After going through everything with a volt meter, turns out that the Painless Performance harness had a bad connection inside one of the relay plugs. Had to pull it apart, but when I did it was no attached and the wire was clamped down so tight that is just cut right right through it. Im gonna call them back tomorrow!

Ok so got the Painless Performance harness installed on the 97 OBS. Not so painless after all!! First the harness plug wouldnt connect into my headlight pug. Had to cut the top half off to make it fit. Second i couldnt unplug the headlight connectors after connecting to the bulbs. IDK what the hell kind of super plug Painless uses but once you put it on good luck taking it back off!! Ripped the back completely off one bulb trying to unplug it. Chewed up both new plugs pretty good trying to pry them off with a screwdriver. Third!!!! When I did the first test both hi and low beams worked. Cut the power and ground to length and reconnected but now only low beams. Maybe the relay? IDK. The lows are brighter than before, but that doesnt really help without hi beams. Any ideas out there?
