Right it's sorted, thank you so much everyone.
Top advise

how did you sort it?

When I was advised to connect blue/red and blue/brown, I thought he meant part blue part red wire part brown part blue wire
Not connect EITHER the blue to brown or red to blue. Took a second look at the post and connected the correct wires confirming it was indeed the relay.
My dad said that it could POTENTIALLY be unsafe, and advised I replace it when I'm more flush. I'm not worried personally. I know there are some very experienced users on this forum and a few confirmation from the veterans is good enough for me. Much appreciated

It will be fine, my friend does that mod to all his cars, then he puts the pink cover over the relay base to protect it

All you have done is remade the headlight circuit, no problems with that.

Does this mod make the Brown/orange wire(resistor) redundant?!
