The 9006 are low beams right?

Yeah, 9006 is for low beams. Just remember, you will need to install a relay if you go with the 80/100 watt bulbs, or you will toast the wiring to an nice cripsy texture. It's also written in the 1st paragraph of the BAT page.
I have been thinking about installing a relay, but how do you do it? do you completely bypass stock wiring and go from battery to relay to lights? If you put it between stock wiring and bulbs, you aren't letting any more wattage get to bulbs because you are still going through thin stock wiring at some point?
