Daytime Runnung Lights

[sha4000]

my drl are not that bright in the day and i say this because i saw another ls which had some that were almost as bright as some lowbeams my questiom is how can i brighten them up with any of the bulbs that they sell in autozone or pepboys?

DRL's usually are the high beams at half power. I have no idea how that is done.

That’s somewhat impossible. ALL the LS's use the high beam bulb at half power to light up the DRL's.

Reason for yours being DIM, is after a long use, the bulb starts turning yellow, and dimming over time. You might just need to replace the high beam bulb (9005). I had yellow coating over my high beam on the LS, and I don’t even have DRL's so yours is aging much faster. When I changed my bulb, high beams were much brighter.

The two HB bulbs are run in series plus a resister resulting in ~5 volts across the filaments. You can increase the brightness slightly by shorting out the resister and no I don't know here its located.

You're a rare bread Sha. Most guys I know want to get rid of there daytime lights. Sometimes it looks cool though.

thanks

actually i was looking in my manual like i have done on plenty of occasions and i see that they are my park lights its a little slot cut into the low beam housing that takes a 5 watt bulb you turn it on with the first click of the light lever so i guess i was a little confused because i was told that these were drls
