Hi Guys,
I've been wanting my DRL to be a bit whiter/non-yellow. I was contemplating going LED but I wasn't too keen about loosing my high beams and also from what I read, the LED's don't last too long, even with the new DRL modules that are out. So from my research, I came across the following: Mtec Cosmo Blue 9005 65W bulbs. I like the fact that they look a bit whiter and I still have functional high beams. Plus the great thing about the Mtec's are that they come with a lifetime warrantee...if they blow out, I just send them back in the original package plus $6 for shipping and I get a whole new set...not too shabby. Anyway, on with the pics...passenger side are the stock bulbs, driver side are the Mtec's:

FYI: not sure if this applies here also but read this as you may need to get this due to the wattage of the bulbs?

I just turned mine off. I dislike DRLs on anything but bikes.
