If I install this, when I turn on the headlight, will the DRL be dimmer ? thanks

no they stay the same brightness but my headlights are brighter than the DRL anyway. That connects to the battery and goes off and on when the car is turned on and off.

the drl turns off when you turn the headlights on, just as a factory drl system would work

If you connect this according to the instructions, when you turn on your headlights, this DRL module will be deactivated. I have mine hooked up to LED marker lights. When I start the car, the LEDs come on. When I turn on the headlights, the LEDs go off. Hope this helps.

No ...this is just the relay to turn on/off automatic when you start the engine .

It had no effect on the brightness... worked well for about a monthbut then would not turn off. I'm going to have to wire to a switch now for off/on.

I use the first gen 1156 as DRL for my A3. Its a HID + DRL Headlamp. not sure if this helps.

Yes fits good, makes a more plasma look to the lower DRL/Fogs. Bulb life however were about 1+ yrs before they started going out in sections. Overall the look is awesome over stock! Sorry, yes fits NICE! Note: these bulbs are a tight fit but just keep the bulb straight when inserting in the DRL housing and lock!

No, it doesn't dim when you turn the headlights on but my husband said it could be set up like that but that would be a manual adjustment.

It depends on which bulb the DRL's use ( headlight or secondary) HID kits use the positive wire from your headlights like a switch wire then the secondary power wire from battery powers the hids, thats what the relay is for. Using this should not interfere with DRL's but all cars are different. I would say yes (can keep) in most cases.

My Camry has DRL so I'm not sure. But I would assume bc the light system works perfectly with cars that have DRL any car without additional equip should be good to go with what comes in the HID kit.

You MUST connect the positive and negative to the battery in order for the module to function properly. Directly from the seller: "Please see attached for instructions on how to hook up. The transformer box knows when the engine is one and when the engine is off by monitoring voltages thru out the vehicle. It will know when the engine is off and turn off the lights as well. Let me know if you still have questions with the install and I can help further. All you need to do is hook up to your battery and hook up your drl LEDs to the other ends of the harness."

You can go into the settings and change the dimmer settings. Do it while your headlights are turned on, and you'll see a little "Moon" icon show up next to the Dimmer setting. That just means you're changing how the brightness changes when your headlights are on. You can turn the brightness all the way up to the default for when your headlights are on if you want to, that way it doesn't dim. I personally have mine set to dim a little bit, but not as much as the default setting.

Once you install the adapter your DRL / Fog lamps will ALWAYS be on. You will be able to toggle among DRLs alone, DRLs + halos, and DRLs + halos & headlights. Halos , of course , only applies to cars equipped with HID headlights.

When the DRLs are on, the turn signals may not flash, but I think you can try fog lights.

As long as you start it in regular mode high it won't dim. I'm only dim if started in dimming mode (straight up and down)

I have these for an 07 Corolla that has daytime running lights, and it does work - I think the DRL part is more related to the car/ecu programming than the bulbs themselves. The lights will run slightly less brightly with the DRL as opposed to when the headlights are fully on

I concur with the previous answers, I also used LED bulbs in the fog lights to use as DRL's.

You would need a DRL harness which is basically two 50ohm resistors in parallel. These lights are not bright at all you would lose your high beam functionality. I would advise you to buy Cree high powered LED bulbs. You can get them from VLEDs or Subispeed.com. if you still want to go ahead and buy these I would buy the DRL harness from iJDMTOY.com.

Fogs only turn on when u pull the knob to the fog light setting. The only way to run just the fogs is program your DRL setting to run as fog lights using a VAG-COM which I did and it saves the HIDs from running all the time. Hope this helps

From personal experience, DRL didn't work on the last vehicle I had converted to 55W HID. I can't speak for this kit specially since my truck has a separate DRL bulb. I'm guessing that the constant low voltage might affect the ballast negatively long term.

YES, if your car is equipped with DTRL. These replacement lights are really Great, easy to install, I do reccommend watching to how to video from you tube.
