Default M-6 question?

Im sure this has been mentioned, but?
U people w/ the M-6 lights, did u replace all four, or just the DRL?
My friend who put the springs in also did my lights. I come back and he said he broke one of the lights(funny b/c it was Dex or some1 else who mentioned to buy more that 1 incase it breaks). Anyway, he put the lights in the bottom socket instead of the DRL's socket, it illumunated well, but my question is, what happens if i put the M-6 on all four sockets, how bright would that be, and has anyone done that?

by the way, the people w/ the clear side markers w/ the M-4 bulbs, any problem w/ cops????

The Polarg M-6 wedge bulbs are to be installed in the lower fixture at the bottom of the housing.

The DRLs you are referring to are your high beams (9005s) at 50% power. No matter what color 9005s you purchase, your DRLs will be yellow. I can never remember what year it was when the DRLs were automatically the high beams......

My GS is a 98, so I don't have true DRLs

I still can't understand why anyone would break the bulb when installing, when I installed mine, it's simple, like cutting a cake. not much into it

how do you install it in the DRL??? isn't the DRL use the 9006 socket? they won't fit... and why do you want all 4 M6, that is just "rice" hee hee (my opinion)

So inotherwords, the M6 wont work in the upper socket, correct?
And ur pretty much saying nothing can make the DRL brighter, or shall I say not as yellow?
If any1 else differs please let me know, brand, and correct size?

"And ur pretty much saying nothing can make the DRL brighter, or shall I say not as yellow?" YES

do a search on DRL, there are tons of info on it
i posted the instruction to disable the DRL on my homepage. (apply to 99 model only, does not work on 2000)
