Daytime Running Lights


Boston

Recommended Posts

I have been driving with my headlights ON for over 30 years after reading about an over the road Truck Driver with a perfect driving record --- No accidents… So far the same is holding true for me; and for 12 years I averaged 30,000 miles per year…

I have yet to replace a single bulb front or back of any of my vehicles…

When I park my Lexus, with the lights left on, I simply hit the lock key twice to turn off the lights… Or you can hit it once and after 20 seconds or so the lights will turn off automatically…

There is No DOUBT, in my mind, that you are more visable and that is more than half the battle…

I disabled my DRLs.....

The factory ones anyway.

Wired a relay into the DRL circuit (dramatically lowers the DRL current flowing in the high beam bulbs) and used the relay contacts to energize the street/parking light circuit, lights front and rear. Used 1 watt Luxeon Leds with collimator lense in both headlamp assemblies to replace factory DRL effect.

I'm importing a 2013 RX350 from the USA into Canada. Canadian regulations state that DRLs must be on when the engine is running, and there must not be any way to shut them off.

Does anyone know how to make the modification that would not allow the DRLs from being turned off?
