Need to change DRL to LED super white light
Nice sunny day today so I'm working on the light bulbs and I have a help question from experts.
My stock car has a yellow halogen bulb during day time driving "DRL"; so I just changed the 9005 DRL to LED, but then I notice there is another little halogen bulb next to the 9005 so what is that little light for? is it the DRL stock bulb? Will the new 9005 LED work as a hi beam after I just changed ?
Thx in advance.

Little light bulb is City Parking Light which could change to LED as well. If you change DRL to LED you will lose high beam function.
I changed mine, since I hardly ever use high beam.

Thanks man. Does that parking light is turn on at all time during driving day & night? that yellowish bulb really annoying need to be replaced w/ led super white which I need to order and do next. I just finished replaced the 9005 led so I lose the hi-beam function now. Damn, it a real pain to just change a bulb for the IS. I have to remove all those crap cover, air filter, fuse box cover. There is just no room to stick the hand in there. I could have known to order LED light for that parking light. Will do one more trip to open the covers again !

You don't have to go that extra mile and remove all of that stuff. You just need to remove the moisture caps and twist the bulbs to take it out. I've changed both my parking lights and halogen DRL bulb to LEDs without having to remove the air filter and such.
