Engage the parking brake prior to starting or turning on the parking lamps.

Actually, I know the answer to this one.....YES.

Here's the link to the thread talking about this.....I had the 5 LED refractors, but I just ordered the J51's. I think that is the light people are preferring. The 5 LED's are too blue looking (and yesy, I ordered the white ones.)

Here's the link that talked about that...

The DRL is a 9005 bulb (hopefully that's what you're talking about)
