Re: turning off daylight running headlights

i don't have DRL on mine, but i drive with my lights on day or night. its that extra step for another car to see you coming. Thats the reason they started using DRL in the first place

Re: turning off daylight running headlights

Okay, it bothers me, because they are always on, i know its on durning the day becaus they are fucking DRL's think about it, thats a pretty stupid fucking question. I want them off for my own reasons, all i asked is for help not people be fucking jack asses and ask why it bothers me and how do i know they are on during the day. I want to be able to turn them off because when i'm idling outside some ones house at night i dont want my lights on, or when im in a court i dont want them on, or so i can flash people with my head lights so they know im a friend, not some random person, i have lotsss of reasons. I'm just trying to figure out how to make it so i can turn them on and off!

Re: turning off daylight running headlights

whoa chill out homie. No need to get all fired up. Wait, you cant even turn them off at night? Dude that does suck. Id want them dismantled too. Lights on in the day is actually a good idea but not ever being able to turn them off at night would drive me crazy. Unfortunatley i cant help you..soooo good luck with that

of course you know they are on because they are DRLs but I was asking why you notice they are on during the day. Don't call me a fucking jackass when you're the one that can't find the OFF switch for your headlights, yes, I said it, all cars, even with DRL, have an OFF switch. Now find it and don't ask anyone for anymore help moron.
