    Now that's a sweet mod!!! I do prefer the LED DRLs lower down and that's a perfect setup!! Did you modify the LED indicators?

    HEY DELTRON3030 !!!

    :):):):)

    I tapped into the existing Parking Light wiring harness !!!

    I wanted them to go on the same time as the Parking Lights went on because they matched real well to those Parking Light LEDs !!!

    I wanted them to go off automatically with the Parking Lights should I accidentally leave them on.

    Hope this helps !!!

    thanks.... yes I have a set already... I'll try to install them before Christmas..... I'm still trying to figure out the wiring... if I can't figure it out I'll just tap it to the park lights

    @Tideland.... nope.... I did not modify the led indicators.... this is a different set of lights... (indicators + drls)

    Ohh? Very cool. If they meet standards, they should be better than our stock DRLs (high beams at reduced intensity). It'll also match my parking lights better (they're LEDs.. so they look weird if I have them on but with the DRLs still running).

    Sorry to interject here...Rodney,

    You said your HID fogs are 4000k? 4000k is a pretty white color. Are you sure you didn't mean 2500k or 3000k?

    Thanks! I checked out the website but it didn't have those... guess I got to call. That is exactly the mod I was looking/hoping for. What was the cost if you don't mind? Also, do they really appear to be weatherproof>?
    Thanks again.

    HEY PETER !!!

    :):):):)

    I think this a new item that Dale is now carrying ...

    I paid $35 for the set.

    They do appear to be waterproof as they are made specifically for automotive use on the exterior. I will be washing the car this weekend and will keep you updated as far as waterproofing !!!

    Have a goodnight !!!

    Wow, Rodney. You've done an impressive amount of modification in a relatively short period of time. I've got a quick question for you. Do you know if the pieces of that body kit are available sold separately? I love the look of the front lip, but the rear and side skirts don't really fit my style.
