Dave, The relay might help a little. With you using LEDs in your headlights they aren't needed near as much. The relay is used to protect your light switch from all the current that incandescent lamps produce. I'd wire it up conventionally and check the voltage drop between the Battery and the Positive side of the lamps while they are ON.

This will identify the need for a relay.
