DRL

Thanks for the info! I assume the headlights still go on and off by using the switch on the stalk? Chris

Everything is exactly the same.

Only difference is when you start the car, you dont have ugly DRLs on.

Re-read from the start of this post. I think we came to the conclusion, that all US Spec cars with cold weather package came with DRL's... either that or they all just came with DRLs.. i dont remember which now.

But by disabaling the DRL's, it has had an effect on factory installed fog lights, but no issues at all with the eBay or JimCatt kits.

Got my Yaris in Washington and it has DRL's. I don't mind 'em though, but have been caught at dusk a couple of times because I forgot to turn the rest of the lights on. At night it's easier to not forget because I can't see anything else on the dash. :)

I suppose if I were a criminal, and wanted to sneak around in my Yaris at night, I'd want to pull the plug...or even a potential victim, hiding from a criminal, it'd be nice to be able to shut off the lights. I've seen way too many movies.

I got a warning ticket last night because of DRLs. When they are on I see lights but have no tail lights hence the pull over.

That exact same thing happened to me last night, except I didn't get a warning ticket ~ just a "Go and sin no more." This morning, I removed the relay and did a quick test run; No problems.

Im gonna go do it right now....Whats the use of hiding from the cops at night if your DRL are as bright as your headlights. ^_-
