Default Daytime Running Lights! 1998 LS400

Hi Everyone,

I am getting DRL setup in our 98 LS400. I'm just wondering...what would be the best looking setup? Just the fogs..or low beams ...or??

I know this is a very subjective question...but I would like to here some opinions before I have it done.

Thank you!

EDIT: To be clear I am not adding any aftermarket kit . I'm having an electrician rewire so that day time running lights are possible and functioning.

thought all canadian cars since '95 came standard with DRL

OEM drl on a car with OEM HID is NEVER the low-beams, it's the high beams at like 1/2 or 1/3 power on all US cars i've ever seen (with and without HID)

Actually mine is from Florida. I just had them done this evening.

He wired the low beams to be my DRLS. I'll update with a photo soon.

Wednesday I'm getting a tint job done ...ill update with that as well!

Just the fogs as DRL's on full power with igintion.
As messing with the high beam for a true DRL is messy as it is a multiple layer circuit . The LS is not as simple as it looks as it has $1000 ecu's controlling it not just a switch a relay and fuse .
