Default light bulb help!!!

so im on my 3rd pair of h11 bulbs for the daytime running lights, no matter what bilbs i get they still show up yellow!! i was told it was because the daytime running lights only put out a minimal wattage when on, is there any way to fix this so that i can get some nice color output from those lights??

correct me if im wrong isn't h11 the low beams? daytime running lights are a safety feature and yes it will only be yellow. there is no way of fixing it. only option is to turn them off from the dealer if they agree to it.
