I'm not the expert here, but I think you will find few cars with fused
headlights. I think the thought process is they don't want fuses burning out on
a dark twisty road. LBCs and trees don't mix.
The better solution is heavier wiring and/or relays. Or perhaps separate
circuit breakers, one for each side.
Remember your LBC was not designed for the current requirements of the modern
headlight.
