Does anybody have the Daytime Running Lights(DRL) on thier rigs?
I was wondering if anyone knew other than the dealer, where you could find the kit for Daytime Running Lights? I want to add them to mine, because I think my insuarance company will give me a discount.
EDIT: So you don't have to read the entire thread, you can have DRLs by swapping out the proper relay. The part number for DRL flasher relay (81980-35020), the Non DRL Flasher Relay is (81980-5003D) Instructions for swapping the relay are at Yotatech (http://www.yotatech.com/showthread.p...085#post391085)

1) remove lower steering panel by removing two 10mm screws at the bottom of the panel on either side of the hood release. Unplug any/all connectors on left side of panel so the panel can rest down on the floor. No need to remove connector on right side of panel.
2) Remove metal shield behind the lower steering panel (two 10mm screws on either side of steering column).
3) Unplug all the fuses and relay that have wires attached to them as this will allow you to freely move the fuse box. (all plugs have "tab releases" on them, so make sure you push the tabs and don't force them).
4) Unscrew the fuse/junctionbox. (one 10mm screw and two 10mm nuts).
5) Turn the J/B towards you. There you will see a beige relay about 1.5" wide. That's the non DRL relay. Use a sharp pointed tool, like an awl, and push it under the relay from the left side to release the tab, then slide it out, it's tricky.
** The NON-DRL relay is smaller then the DRL relay. You will see the the lighting wires connect to a small wire harness, and that wire harness connects to the NON-DRL relay that is clipped on. you must remove the relay and the small harness.
6) Connect slide the new, bigger (2.5"), Black, DRL relay into the wiring harness and then onto the same clip the NON-DRL relay was on. Plug the connector in to the relay without the wire harness adapter. (You don't need it anymore)
7) Reverse for assembly
Thanks for everyone who worked on getting this info
Here is a picture of the DRL Relay (black) and the Non DRL Relay with the wiring harness you have to remove(beige)
