Default 2003 Headlight question

I have a 2003 2.4L 2AZ-FE Camry, currently I have a 5000k HID kit on my low beams. When I turn on my high beams my low beams goes off, what I'm wanting to do is make my low beams stay on when I turn on my high beams, is this possible? I'm thinking that I'll need to use a relay or a diode, if so how would I wire it? Has anyone done this?

Default RE: 2003 Headlight question

I suppose this is poissible but there may be a few problems. Excess filiament heat damaging the lamp and plastic light fixture, blinding oncoming cars, drawing too much current draw from the electrical system, shorter filament life, is the bulb designed to have both filaments on at the same time and the legality of doing this.

Autozone may have a wring diagram. The lights already receive power the light switch just completes the circuit to ground. Thus it is possible but not sure what would happen the bulbs may not be designed for this type of operation.
