Default HID lights and Eastern Beaver H4 relay harness

I just installed Eastern Beaver's H4 headlight relay kit. If I add the VVME HID light kit to replace the stock headlights, is the Eastern Beaver harness superfluous? or do I just reconnect the H4 kit after installing the HID kits?

The HID kit includes a relay. The relay kit is indeed superfluous.

Thanks. I just got my credit card bill - apparently I have maxed out my farkle budget for this fiscal year. HID will have wait! At least I have peace of mind that I won't fry my wiring in the meantime.

Yeah that's what sold me on the VVME. $20 more than an H4 relay kit for, well, HID.
