Well, I had thought of that (d'oh), but I don't want low beams at
normal wattage. I'd prefer high-beams at low intensity. That's why I
asked the question. Also, if I turn on low beams, then the navigation
system dims (requires a manual reset every time), and all the dash
lights illuminate in broad daylight which I don't like on principle

Does anyone know the answer to my original question? I'm not willing
to pay big bucks for the conversion, but if it might be a simple
matter of switching out a relatively inexpensive controller, I'd love
to know about it.
Thanks in advance.
