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!!

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 !!!
