Ha! You're kidding me! I thought I read that you have to pull out some relay and jack with it for it to work. So there is a DRL fuse and seriously that's it? Pull it out and the auto-on feature still works??

All I did was pull the fuse out and the DRL went off, but know I have to turn the headlight knob at night for the headlights and the dash lights to come on, i dont know if there is a way to keep the auto on feature, but i dont mind turning a knob to get my headlights on.

what matt said

if your car is 2001 and newer (i believe) you're fuse box will make a terrible clicking noise when teh car is on and the fuse pulled out. Just undo that plug on that heatsink, and they will stay off during the day, and come on automatically when its dark out

But the auto on (at night) function will remain intact?

Thanks for all the help/pointers guys, you're studs.

Here the latest photo from the shop. Yesterday I went and dropped off the projectors and they let me plug one in really quick for a test. Man, it is SO much brighter than normal and I love the color. They said the car should be all done on Monday. I'm STOKED!

Just picked it up! Camera phone pic:

Is this it?

Sweet!!

I'm headed to pick up my car here in about an hour (it's been in the shop for three weeks!! ) Once I pick it up I'm going to disable to the DRL's and then wire up the halos and LED's.

Does anyone know how to make it so your low beams will stay on when you put your high beams on? I figured that'd make it so you didn't jack your ballasts if you needed to flash your brights for whatever reason.

yup that's it

Nice. I will have to do that tomorrow. Is there a way to have just your fog lights and side markers on?

you should be able to just turn the headlight switch to the first positon and that will just have the side markers and fogs on.

On mine I can do that but I do have 2000 tho

Ok. Thanks. Will try it out. I hope to get some black housings within the next month to fix my light output problems.
I cleaned the headlights inside and out and used some plastic cleaner on them, but they are getting quite hazy.

Awesome! Thanks so much guys, it all worked like a charm. Got everything wired up and it looks great. The headlights droop a little bit because of only having two mounting points so I might try the weather stripping thing to get them to point up just a tad more.

I tried unplugging the heat-sink today and removing the fuse. Worked fine when the car wasn't running. When I started up though it started clicking like crazy. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

put the fuse back in. just keep the DRL/heat sink unplugged. Your autolights will still work, but you won't have DRLs.

..promise it'll work.

Ok. Will try that tomorrow. Thanks.

Yeah, I left my fuse in place and just unplugged the heat sink like Matt and 03GTPLE are saying and it worked perfectly.
