DRL question

I saw an Si the other day driving and he had his DRL's and low beams on at the same time. Does anyone know how this can be done without just using a jumper wire?

DRL = highbeams
but at less voltage when in DRL mode.

maybe he just had his lights on and forgot that the highbeams were on

Are you wanting this so that your DRL's mimic the TL's foglights?

What kind of bulbs are you running? Do they really look more yellow then the stock ones?

06Blaksi; have you figured this out? I know what you want to do now. I think I want to do this as well. Well I have seen some schematics but for the RSX, but i am not sure where to tap in for a jumper or simply removing a wire from the harness... I found a thread on clubrsx that mentioned simply removing a "blue w/red tracer" from a harness and (pin #8) but my wife closed that window and i have been able to find it again.

i'll keep looking
