Day-time only turn at daylight by the sensor ..
Thank you in advance

Step 1
: get some 20g wire, a 200v 1amp diode (Radio shack PN: 276-1102)
Step 2
: Install the diode inbetween a line of wire. Or better put, get two pieces or wire and wire on to each side of the diode. You can solder it or wrap the wire around the
diode
wire and tape it up with electrical tape (NOT RECOMMEND, you should solder it)
Step 3
: Remove the Prk fuse 10amp and the drl fuse 10amp.
Step 4
: lift the park relay and drl relay and place the wire/diode ends (exposed wire) into the specific slots in the relay. 86/85 respectivily. Make sure the little grey strip,
the cathode side, is point towards the PRK RELAY 86. Also make sure the diodes wires arent exposed and not grounding on anything.

Step 5
: Replace the relays in their specific slots. Make sure to line them up correctly; they got numbers next to the contact points on the bottom so its really easy no to
mess this up.

Step 6
: Replace the fuses.
Step 7: Enjoy!!

Forgot to mention that before removing the relays, pull the parking light and
drl fuses
to prevent potential shorts caused by the flat blade screwdriver.
Once the jumper has been installed, put the fuses and relays back, but don't fully seat it until after verifying that the lights work. This way, it won't be too much of a pain removing the relays again.

Couple questions
does it interfere with the auto light ?, also at day only the day-t lamps will be on? .tx

h2 similar im sure
the concept is precisely the same,the physical hookup is similar.
no twisted wires,no taped up conn, a neat tidy secure job, and just trying to help
