Relays is for H4 to H7 only

Wouldn't bother with HIDs .. just annoy other drivers ...

Aren't morettes dual bulb just like stock crystals (2xH7) but in separate housings and possibly 1xH7+1xH1?

Is the the dipped beam meant to stay on along with the main beam? If so, I'd believe the relay setup is needed.

In general, for a single bulb (H4) to dual bulb (crystal / morette) upgrade, to keep the dipped beam on when the main beam comes on, you need to
* either provide an alternate power source for the dipped bulb (via relay) while the main is on (and the car turns the dipped off)
* or make the car itself keep the dipped beam on by changing BSI settings to 'dual optics', IIRC. Don't know whether that's possible on a pre-plex car.
