Is it just me or did no one really cover "how to" take these apart. Most of the linked threads were "hey look what I did" and not really "heres how you do it." sorry for going "quote" crazy.

Yes, i have the Philips DayLight LED light bar.

I have not bought the fog lights yet... I did look at the wiring and planning to get the signal from here-
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/2242476-post10.html

I tested the circuit and i think i can connect the SIGNAL (+) wire here. I will be able to disable the stock DRL by getting the signal from the same jumper wire;

however when tested, this jumper wire is IGN (+) signal, so that means it will be on all the time while the motor is ON.

in a way, kinda kill 2 bird 1 stone (disable DRL and connect DRL on same wire).

next item to buy is the fog light but i am lagging on it because alignment is more important and i still need to convince my friend to open the fogs for me.

if i just go with (1) set in the fogs, i am considering to use these "hyper white" bulbs in addition to the Philips DayLight to fill the background and provide usable ground light. i was thinking LED; but overall.. i want more functional lights over looks.
