Canadian CB7s READ!!

[JaK FRoSTWhiTE]

I was reading my owners manual and it said that canadian
CB7s (EX-R's and EX's) have this thing called "Daytime Running Lights"
or simply...DRL.
DRL comes on in the Daytime, the High beams come on at only 10%
power i think. To me it looks cool. Also, i was looking at my fuse box under
the hood and i saw a Fuse for it.
Can this mean i can have DRL?
Also is there a light on the cluster for it?
Please let me know.

PS: Can somebody post pics of their cars with the DRL's on...
and also a pic of the Guage Cluster....thx

i think u need more than a fuze , however when i get home ill post mine up

Yeah, there's a whole system involved with it. Legacy Accord had his US spec car imported to Canada, and I think they botched the installation of the DRL stuff or something. It's really not worth it, IMO. Lights on all the time = more money paid to replace burnt out bulbs... You'd be happier if you just tried to score a junkyard HID setup

So the price is still $750 for yours?

They really fucked something up, I got it all figured out, if you really want the DRL's all you have to do is run a power wire from any key on acessory with a relay to the headlight power wire and voila DRLs on. They kill lightbulbs especialy if you have the "plasma white" type of lightbulbs.

In canada its the law to have DRLs but I disconnected mine

If anyone is interested I have a DRL control modual and harness from a canadian accord for sale.

Yo Phat, i think that looks hot. Im kicking the idea around.
I want something out of ordinary for my accord, and i think that
wouldnt be bad.
Can you do a DIY on it?
and possibly get a couple more pics?

[phatdoughnut]

DIY? i just used the Insight module.. :P but the catch is its tons easyer if you use the JDM headlights do to the H4 being hi/lo

heres another pic.

I bet if you could rig a low beam regular bulb or some yellow leds it would be the same , and alot cheaper

^^ That looks sick....wish i can do that....
Oh yea, one thing that i noticed...The DRL light on the canadian
cluster looks like it was added on. Cuz in the US spec, they didnt
have a slot for that DRL light. I have an LX, and it came with a slot
for the ABS light which i dont have.
