Default low beam switch in floor

Anybody here done this? I just moved out of the city where I never used my high beams. Since I've been in a rural area with a lot of hills and curvy roads I've realized how much I missed the old ways of using my foot to switch from hi and low beams. I can't stand almost taking my hand off the wheel to dim my lights.

I know everyone is used to using the newer method nowadays. But if anyone knows how to make the change, please let me know. Thanks.

So taking your hand off the wheel on one side for a milisecond to hit the switch scares you?

You don't even have to pull your whole hand off, just use two fingers to pull it back.

Im pretty sure you can, just identify which wire triggers the high beam lol.
Maybe it just grounds it when you click it back, so you can cut it and put it on a switch and there ya go!
