Hi, i`m just wondering how many of you like them and keep them on. Or not crazy about the look and disable them. I think they look better on the lighter colored RX`s vs. the Black like I have. Just curious about what you all think.

I like them but because they increase the visibility of the vehicle although is was surprised to find a group opposed to DRLs and a NHTSA study that does not show an increase in safety with DRLs. I think we will keep ours on but I'm not as certain of the safety advantage as I was. Aesthetically I don't see a disadvantage with the lights. I did learn a new word: conspicuity. I don't know that I will use it all that often but always a bit of fun.
^Conspicuity is good. Some visibility is better than none No DRLs on almost gives the impression a vehicle is not moving.
It's about 50/50 the amount of people that turn on their LED DRLs on by me. It makes the RX look old and broken IMO when they don't.

I'm with Tom558! I don't dislike them like I did the older halogen running lights, so I leave them on for the increased visibility. The biggest advantage I see, is that someone MIGHT not pull out in front of me from a side street or parking lot, or something. I have no idea if it really works, but since I can't see a downside ... why not.
