[DML] headlights

Ok guys, I need some help. I don't know what I did but it is not right. I
decided to replace my headlights with more powerful ones, so I bought higher
wattage bulbs for the outboard (high/low) lights. I did not touch the
inboard (high) lights. When I changed the bulbs, something strange
happened. Now, when I turn on the low beams the highs come on with them
(very did though). Also, both lights in the instrument cluster are lit
(high and low indicators). I thought I shorted something out, but when I
put the original bulbs back in, they are fine. I assume that the problem is
related to the higher wattage / amperage bulbs. I know nothing about how
the headlights are wired and the wiring diagram in my manual is worthless
(not very well printed). I have replaced the 20 amp fuses with 25 amp fuses,
but this did nothing. What is causing this? I thought that the two systems
(high and low) were seperate, but they must be inter-locked somehow. Would
higher rated or different relays solve this? I really don't know how to fix
it and I would like to use these higher wattage bulbs. Any help is
appreciated. \
Thanks,
Brian Vin #16584
