Default daytime running lights????
so i just put some new daytime running lights in.... I wanted to know if its normal for them to only be on during the day and when i have my headlights on they go off????? I got them from ijdmtoy's.. I guess i thought they always were on when i had the stock ones in...

They go off when low beams are on and turn into your high beams when you flip your high beams on.

They are daytime running lights, they are only running during the day at half power when your headlights are off. Same bulb is your high beam. If you replaced the bulb for LED, you no longer had high beam. There's another bulb (parking light) in the same housing

No. Your high beams and drl are the same bulb. For drl it runs the bulb at half power, high beam runs the bulb at full power.
