Ive searched but really can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for.
I want to replace the DRLs (daytime running lights) with a bulb that matches in color to the stock headlamps (preferably more "white" or"blue"). Can someone please link to the product I would need and, if possible, installation advice/recommendations part number as well

thanks

How do you run the wires for the led daytime running lights? I bought the led lights from ijdmtoy.com and it didn't come with any instructions. I don't want to drill any holes in the cover thats behind the bulb.

I got mine from ebay for like $15.98 with free expedited shipped to my door.
From certain angles your DRL's are blue (when they are not on), so your headlights have a blueish look when your car is parked.
But when you turn the lights on they are super bright white 7000k.

Did you stop and have lunch after you changed the first bulb?

I put in my nokyas in like 5 mins.
The DRL location is very easy to access and it's quick and easy.
And that's a surprise for me because I have big hands.

I can pull my front bumper and pull out the HIDs in about 10min. its very easy

Thanks for your help. I was under the impression that you replace the little bulbs that are next to the high beam bulbs. which is what I wanted to do. But after installing the led lights from ijdmtoy.com the ballasts just kinda hang out there? I couldn't make them fit inside the housing and put the cover back on. How did you guys do it? Did you leave the back cover off? Thanks again

i was thinking of doing this before, but for now i just unplugged my DRL completely lol

You'll love em
When they're on they are nice and white.
They're much better than oem yellow/orange
Try to get a pic with one side OEM and one side with this new bulb. (just for comparison)
I was gonna do that but I forgot.

^^^Will do! Thanks, I wasn't too sure which drl/high beam combo to go with but after searching I read your review and followed the Ebay link!
