If your car did not come with LED/HID then yes, otherwise you don't need them.

Just need the parking light ones.

The DRL, most likely don't want to do that since going to lose your high beam.

Yeah, I don't have the LED/HID and I haven't disabled my DRL yet, so would it look funny with the stock yellow DRL and the white 168 bulb?

And when I'm driving at night and I wanna just have my white lights on only without the yellow lights, how do I do that?

You could just get a whiter set of DRL halogens.

Ie. Sylvania Silverstar Ultra.

Wait so is the DRL the little bulb? Or is it the high beam bulb at low output?

Sorry but I've been confuse by this ...

What is the different between the DRL and the parking light?

I thought the front only has the low/high/fog/ and drl ?

The DRL is the same as your high beams except running at low power. The parking light is the little bulb in there..
