RE: daytime running lamps

If thats true then people havent been buying H3's around here lately because it seems 99% of the H3's I see on the road have the parking lights on.

I recall someone mentioning here that it all depended on when your H3 was manufactured. H3s with the parking lights for DRLs were manufactured early 2006. Mid 2006 and on, headlights are used as the DRLs. I could be totally off target though, my memory's failing...alcohol induced of course=) I think if you look on your driver side door jam, there should be a 'born on date'. As for me my DRLs are the headlights, although I wouldn't mind having the option.

Tis true.................Early H3's use the parking lights and later H3's use the headlights

RE: daytime running lamps

Regardless of what bulbs are being used for DRL lights, if you manually turn your headlamp switch to parking lamps and turn on your foglamps, it will appear from the front that the signals and fog lamps are DRLs. However, from the rear, if the headlamp switch is turned, the rear lights will also be on.

RE: daytime running lamps

I keep my lights on auto (including fogs) and pulled the DRL fuse (#29, I believe).Somemay arguethe safety issue. And I agree they would helpwithmy MR2.. I think they'll see my H3 coming down the road and are less significant. I just don't like them; and hardly ever see other H3 owners driving with them on.
