So, i have to do some added wiring to my A. At the orginal headlight switch ford connects both (two)headlight feed wires as one connection. I need to add an in dash pull type light switch and wire to it.
Question: Will both headlights still receive full current if i run a single same sized wire from the switch down to and connect to where ford joined the two headlight wires as one connection OR do I need to run one bigger wire from switch to the two wire connection?

using a slightly heavier gauge wire might not be necessary but it surely won't hurt anything.

The tail light is on whether you are in park or high or low beam headlights.

If you connect that dash wire to the tail light circuit, you will have light available for any good occasion.
