Auto headlight hack for wipers?

[EZcheese15]

Anyone have any idea on how I would do this?

GA state law requires that when the wipers are on, the headlights need to be on too. That, and it's a good safety precaution anyway for others to see you.

So here's my question, the G has auto lights, but they aren't related to the wipers at all. If I wanted to modify it so that the lights turned on anytime the wipers were in the int, low, or high wiper settings, but still have them be light sensative via the photosensor, how would I do the wiring? Could I put a jumper between the wiper switch and the headlight switch with a diode in between? Or should I go about it using a relay?

I have been wondering the same thing. Same law here in VA.
