Default RX 2011 Front Position Lights and DRL

Hello all,

I am looking to replace my Front Position Lights with an LED bulb. According to the manual they require 5Watt Type E Bulbs. Any of you have any experience with good LED bulbs of this type?

By the way, does your car lightswitch look like this? Please see my attachments. I am in Asia, and I am pretty sure my car is not equipped with DRLs. Is there a way to add a DRL system for the high beam lights. I just bought LED lights for the high beams (not installed yet) and its a shame if it doesn't show during the day.

Thanks!

I believe the only way to add DRL function on your high beams is to hot wire them and maybe you can add separate switch to turn it on/off. I seriously don't think it will be practical.

By the way, I'm in Thailand and my RX's light switch looks just like yours. For cars with the DRL, in order to enable/disable DRL function you can set it on the nav screen.
