DRL's OFF!!!
Ok, I did it... I bought the Techstream kit from Amazon.com and its awesome. It can change all lexus settings, including turning off those *****ty daytime running lights. For those of us that still have the lights that use the high beam at 6v as the DRL... I highly recommend this setup. Only thing is, it mjust run on windows XP, so I had to use my old laptop. But no big deal, the rest was a breeze.

I took mine into the dealership this weekend to take care of the cam gear recall and had them disable the DRLs while they were at it. I prefer this to replacing them with LED's because I still retain high-beam functionality.

Anything the dealer can change, and of the lexus preferred settings, you can use it to program TPMS sensors, clear trouble codes, clear air bag codes, and has a button for "ecu programming". Idk what that does, there is alot of settings you can change.
my dealer flat out refused, they said they will not disable a safety device.
Yea, thats why I bought it, but I'd like to make some changes on my Tundra as well. Its lifted on 35's and the yaw sensor is sensitive as hell... SO I can use this to recalibrate that too. It works for all Toyota/Lexus vehicles.

BTW, it looks best in the evening when my parking lights are the only thing lit, I have Super white LED's in the city light, (the tiny light in the high beam hole.) They look pretty cool.

I have not... Yet. I'll be getting new wheels in the spring and I will be doing it. Before I bought this, I was on the tundra forum and a couple guys there say the have used it for their tpms. I'll def keep this thread updated as I play with this thing some more.

hey titan did your techstream install disc have a huge crack in it?
I have tried for a few hours to get this windows xp mode to work on my laptop. I have win 7 home premium 64 bit and Microsoft.com has made it very hard to properly set up everything so that the virtual pc will work. I guess the only way to go is to buy some old laptop with xp on it from craigslist or something. lol
