Default Day Time Runnng Lights

Hi,

I am just about to do a 97-00 conversion on my 95 SC400. I am just curious if anybody here has rewired their high beams to day time running lights (like the 99-00 models) and if so how hard is it to do.

thanks

DRL are a waste. All they do is cost you an extra 3-5 gallons on gas each year. Just switch on the automatic lights and your all set

yeah no DIY. I just had the idea a couple days ago. Thought it might look cool, since we really don't use highbeams and all the new cars have DRL

Lol what was that all about. As far as DRL goes, I wired my s13 foglights to be DRL-ish, just took a relay and about an hour worth of my time
