I installed a set of LED in my high beam slot to use as LED DRL. I know that I'd loose the brightness of the high beams but wanted the color / modernness of the LEDs. I installed them bit they did not light up as DRL only when I turn on the high beams. I though it was a resistor issue so I added a set - still no lights during the day. Any ideas? Anyone using these successfully?

Be sure you set it up just like the instructions instruct you to. They will work and they look good. This is for 9005 bulbs (or LED substitutes) and the headlights will not get brighter when you hit the bright switch on them. But they do make nice looking DRLs.

I installed a set of these without success.

You MUST HAVE the decoder harness shown in the picture

hmm, so I bought the wrong harness. I did not know they were different. Did some searching. Is this the correct one?

Yes that looks like the right one. Be sure to hook it up like the instructions show

Just bought the harness. I will let you know how it works out. Thanks for the help!

Cool. I hate to be so redundant but be sure to hook it up like the instructions say. Good luck!

I'm sorry but I forgot to add this - those resistors get really hot so make sure you don't have them up against a wire or anything else that could melt.
