    Running Light Question

    I have a problem with my drl kit... I installed it on my high beams to make it turn on 50% off but then it worked right.... then a couple minutes later my high beamed didnt work as drl anymore and suddenly low beam works... so overall i installed drl kit and tapped the high beam wires and somehow SOMEHOW low beam is on drl now... its weird cuz high beam did work as drl but then didnt and switched for low beam.

        you need the dual filiment h4s in order for them to work properly... im not sure how accordztech did it with his usdm headlights.. he never did show us.

          cause it was a pain in the ass...and still is...lol im wondering how i did it

          the thing is i was talking to him and he said he hooked it directly to the h1 high beam. im thinking he can use a 6 ohm diode inline so that power wont feedback the other way...thats one step i used to get my DRL's to work, thanks to cpmikes advice.
          What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

          You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

            well the funny thing is that i talked to cpmike and i told him i just did a diode on it and he said its a good idea and i did it and it still the same thing... i used a 12volt zener diode from radioshack.

              ok dude thats now super weird, did u put the diode on right..the silver strip facing the right way? i think facing towards the bulb, and did u put the wire from the drl unit after that diode??

                oh make sure its a 6a diode at least, those are the bigger ones...cause if not it wont work.

                    yea insight kit... the seller sells them pretty quick he usually put it up for like only 5 items at a time and he'll start selling more like in a couple days or so...
