yo man easier way than diode and stuff to get full function that you can use them during the day as drl's and together with ur headlights you connect then to the orange hazard lights ( boxes to the side of the headlight) this way if you would accidentaly blow a fuse you lose your drls adn hazard light on a small 15 amp fuse instead of losing your head lights which you could get a ticket plus the fuse for head lights is a speacial order or you have to buy them at hummer.

wat you do is take out the small fuse in your engion comparment bow marked for your drls not fog lamp  that is a useless fuse.

then you cut your wires leading to your drl's reasonbly that you can connect some more wire without hassel of sticking your hands in that tight spot. after that you connecthe wire to your hazard light (the shrink wrap it or electrical tape and your good to go)

oh just tuck away the wire left behind from ur drls that was leading to them that you cut so if in the future you want to restore it its there and tape the fuse that you took out to the inside of your box.

_______________________________________________________

that was the way i did it and the way i trust it to work properly but you can also connect a diode between the hazard marker lights and the drls. if you do this during the day you can turn on your drls adn at night both will turn on, but to turn on during the day you flip the light switch up one to the picture of two lights opposite eachother.

but you  do what you want i know this way works cause i did it plus i highly dont!!! recomend the diode to ur head lights in case you do something wrong and you  blow that big fuse which u can get a ticket at night for having no lights till you replace thiat, this ur safe even if you blow a fuse cause its not ur head lights!!


this is how mine looks at night !!!

Did you use a diode?? If so, you might just have to switch the wire around(change the diode direction)! I know if you put the diode backwars, it won''t work!!
