Re: OEM Day Running Lights
Just one minor suggestion.... ask that a fuse be attached along the cable. All these lights are China made and the QC is probably depending on.... luck?
Given an option, change the wire to a thicker one... not those 1mm diameter wire that comes with it.

Re: OEM Day Running Lights
hi bros,
just to share. I got the INPRO brand (you can check from the website) from Benzline. Made in Germany. Is not as cheap. But i am pretty sure with the quality so far and the looks. Got it installed at Mike. Installed a mnual on off switch under steering wheel (and as far as i know there is a relay or fuse) connected to it. If i permanently on it, the DRL connects to the interior lights of the car. Hence, effect is - once you use your remote to open the car lock (DRL on)..nice nice when in carpark etc. Off it once you lock the car....very good just to ensure your car is lock by looking at the lights off. Here's a few pics to share

Re: OEM Day Running Lights
was contemplating all options of position when installing. Also want to make sure the surface of light flushes with the bumper . Hence, that was the optimal place in my own opinion. Guess importantly, any owner will have their preference position ...
But honestly, in terms of safety for road users especially sometimes when you see pedestrian in middle of the road divider..they took notice of you more easily hence reduce risk..personnally experienced it a few times...and btw... me no angel xenon light...and this is a cheaper option to changing headunit to angel light for DRL...again.....just my own opinion....

Re: OEM Day Running Lights
I think i know the owner. Is a fellow forumer and i bought from him some "CF" emblems. $50 for front and back and steering wheel piece.Have to say that it wasn't one of my best purchases.
Anyway he showed me this DRL installed on his IS250. Looks quite decent.
But i have my fair share of experience with sub-quality products already so i would want to be a tad bit cautious. Dont flame me, i was just sharing my experiences pertaining to one product i bought and its not the one in topic now. Just be careful.
