DRLs, anyone know about...

[unvmyrs]

Can anyone point me in the right direction for this...?

I'm trying to get my headlights to stay off unless I actually turn the switch on...but I want just the fog lights,marker lights, and halos (I have black halo headlights) to run together...how can I do this???

[shock_core]

I cut the wires to the light sensor out in my dash board. Now my drl's are always on unless I turn the knob.

Although, I did tape the wire to the underside of the dash, just incase I needed to put them back together.

You can change the lower driving lamps to actual yellow fog
light by adding a yellow lens and from the underside of the
front of the car, put it in front of the lens of the lamp.
You can buy two for just $5 at parts-express.com, part no. 243-091. I have done it on my 2000 camaro and it works fine.

Umm, I didn't ask anything about a yellow fog light, lol... maybe I worded the question wrong...I meant, how can the automatic headlight become disabled??? Anyone else have halos that could possibly help?

like said by shock core, cut the wires, look on your dash where the vents are, you can either lift that up where the seam is and snip the wire, or pull your radio to go in from underneath, snip the wire, add some extensions and a switch like I did. Then if you want to use the autoheadlights, flip the switch to auto and they'll work like factory or switch it the other way and the car will think it's daylight. As for your halos and fog's and markers, all that you stated come on when you turn you headlight switch one click (parking lights) in order to make your halos come on with your parking lights - easiest way is ground them out and run a wire down to the positive wire from your foglights and wire tap it off of there. Then if you wish to get more creative, you can always hard wire the halos to a switch or wire them to your alarm system so they come on either with your alarm whilst the car is parked during day/night or to just a switch so you can turn them on at will at night or whenever you want to leave them on, and dont worry about your battery the leds in the halos will run for years off your cars battery. MIght be something you wanna look into.

what color is the wire that i'm sposed to cut??? I'm not too good with electrical work...I have the halos wired up with the fog lights already...now what about adding a switch to take away the auto daylight headlight so just the halos markers, and fogs are on?

[irunhighpsi]

Yeah what color is the wire and is it labeled? Can you give a more detailed procedure? Thank you!

[shock_core]

just cut one of the wires that is attached to the light sensor. It doesn't matter which one because all your need to do is break the circut.

[unvmyrs]

so just cut it and that's it?? no more?? Sorry, but I just want to be TOTALLY sure before I CUT WIRES, LoL...So just cut one and my auto headlights won't come on??

Disable Auto Head Light and Day Running Lights


Disabling the Day Running lights and the Auto Headlight on feature is quite an easy mod and can be reversed just as easy. This mod takes approx. 10 min. and all the tools needed are a socket set.

1. Lift the trim plate from around the radio and climate control panel. No tools are needed as it is held on by pressure clips. Set it aside.
2. Take out the four hex screws holding in the radio in. (Note) You don’t need to disconnect the battery for this operation BUT if you do, make sure you know the code for your radio if it is enabled. You will need it to ensure your radio operates after putting it back in.
3. Move the radio aside and look into the dash. In the upper right corner on the firewall you will see a small black box with two wire harnesses attached to it (about the size of a pack of camels).
4. Lift the box in an upward motion, it’s on a slide clip. Bring the box out of the dash, there is plenty of wire to manage easily. Disconnect the wire harness with the BLUE wire in it, just let it hang out of the way. THAT’S IT!
5. Re-install the wire box, radio and faceplate.

this way you dont have to cut anything, but you will lose your drl's
