Can you change the daytime running light or high beams to match hids?

Dirksta · 08-24-2011, 11:40 PM

I just want them to match my HIDs I think it looks stupid not matching. Any help would be appreciated .

U can always pull the drl fuse and then put in hids.

thats still not a good thing to do.. try finding a halogen bulb from noyka or luminics..

Sylvania came out with some new zxe bulbs that would work too

Why is it a bad thing?

joon joon · 08-25-2011, 01:06 AM

if you use them for flash to pass its not good.. hids have a warm up time.. if you use them for the back roads its fine since they'll be on for more than a few seconds..

you can try the LED bulb from ijdmtoy along with a decoder so you don't have the error on the dash. i plan on getting it too but it's low priority on my to-buy list. heres a link:

Beat me to it..

We have a LED DRL kit that provides a better color light than the dull, ugly, yellow bulbs. These lights are rated at 6000k so it's a perfect match for those who have HIDs.

Not the best picture, but you'll have a good idea of the color. These are much brighter in person.

We also have a new type of DRL decoder that is going to be soon available which makes these lights a bit brighter !

Do you have 3000k led drls?

those LED's look dope! Whats the life expectancy on those?

orlando3_23_87 · 08-25-2011, 05:34 PM

When is the new decoder coming out???

***iJDMTOY*** · 08-25-2011, 06:41 PM

MwSlim -

We do not have any 3000k colored LEDs, the ones I provided a picture of above is rated at around 6000k

Surfinmaui014 -

The life expectancy of these lights will really vary depending on length and frequency of use, but in optimal conditions, these can last up to 20,000 hours. I've had mine on my DD for about 2-3 months, driving pretty much every day.

orlando3_23_87 -

We are still working out the small kinks in the new decoder, but it should be out within a few weeks or so, I can't place an exact time as of right now yet.

Purchase $50 or more and get a free carbon fiber key holder!

Spend $100 or more and get the key holder + 15% off when using the code "LABOR".

Only for this weekend!
