Heres a rough tutorial of the fog mod.

1. Access the fog relay behind the fuses in your passenger kick panel.
2. Take out the relay, the 3 prongs on it should look like this |_|, bend out the one to the left of the horizontal spade I believe.
3. Attach a female spade connector that is attached to some 18guage or so wire. Re-insert relay.
4. Now just bring the wire to the front of the fuses and wrap it around ONE of the prongs on the IGNITION fuse, and push the fuse back in.

Done. Go to .net for a better tutorial, but that will get the job done.

Are you trying to change just the bulbs in the DRLs or trying to change which lights turn on? I don't know about that, but the bulbs are 9006...

So your city lights don't work?? Does your side markers work?? I would check the bulb first. It might be just out....

PS: I know the heat from the HIDs makes the LED lights to go out faster, but I don't know if it effects regular style bulbs


PSS: Got your pm Fay, I just sent you the email.

I think I've got the diagrams you're looking for. Drop me a PM and I'll email them on over to you if you still need them. (but yeah, the DRL mod is posted on my.is)

its both of the little l.e.d. lights, my side markers still work, and i figured they should be fine as they are pretty new. but i might try to see if its bad lights. you know now that i think of it, they have never worked since i've had the car. so maybe it is just the lights...

I believe he is trying to do something different than the "DRL Mod". i.e. Not trying to disable it, or the full power DRL. Instead, he is trying to use a different light as his DRL

LoL~ Yeah, it's color coordinated for less confusion. And N/P about the diagram

Did you replace the "Parking/City Lights" with LEDs or are they the stock/oem bulbs (the yellow light/clear glass type)??

If you replaced it with LED ones, they have to go in a certain way for it to work. + they get burned out fast due to the heat from the HIDs (I replace mine every 2-3 months)

Or if they are stock, they could have gone out as I stated before, but I guess we wouldn't know til you take them out and look at it

Stop being lazy and go check... It only takes 1min at most
