wiring in the relay sounds way more complicated then it is tbh, if you take a step back and look at it, all you have to do is connect one wire to the battery, one wire to the earth, one wire to the mainbeam feed and one to the dipped beam feed on both sides 
esentially this happens:
you flick to main beam, this clicks to relay to on, power is then drawn through the relay from the connection to the battery, and goes to the dipped beam. this gives you dipped and main at the same time
when you flick back to dipped, the relay looses its input (from main beam) so clicks off, stopping the power to dipped from the relay)
it took me ages to get my head around it, but its not that bad  |
So much easier to just fit the grey H7 plugs in place of the black H4's & tweak the BSI configuration.
No need to mess about with relays then

If I were to get some H4 angels, would I still need the BSI tweaking or not and are most angels H4 fitting???
Thanks,

as angels are H4 fitting you wouldnt need H7 plugs, but because they have two lenses (one for dipped, one for main) you still need the BSI changed to get them both on at the same time (or a H4 - H4 adapter) as shown in the bottom two diagrams on the first page 
they will fit and work without any alterations but when you put your main on the dipped will go off..

But I currently have H4 frosted, why would I need H7 plugs??? :/

They will just plug 'n play. But you'll need the BSI tweeking or fit a relay for the dipped beam to stay on when the main beam is on
