DIY for Bi-Xenon?

Does anyone have/know of a DIY for the Xenon-Vision bi-xenon headlights? Their included instructions only shows regular HID install, not the bi-xenon and I'm totally confused.

I don't but I believe that, as a registered vendor, xenon-vision should have to supply a DIY online or specific installation instructions for all of the Yaris offerings. Just my .02 on the subject but...I am sorry that I can't help. I understand that model years, DRL's etc. complicate things but how can you sell something that you cannot adequately support or answer questions on. Having a centralized location with all of the information for a standard H4 vs. bi-xenon (including all model years) is a win-win for everybody.

It's all good, I got it figured out. I was just having a retard moment, but everything's working perfectly. No DRL issues and fog lights work 100%

Sorry, I should have been clearer. With the bi-xenons, you don't have to do any DRL modification. The kit truly is plug & play and there's no need to disable/unplug the DRL, which allows the fog lights to still work. Perfect!

I have the 6000K bi-xenon kit from Xenon-Vision. The DRL simply doesn't work anymore, but didn't require me to disable anything. I guess something about the bi-xenon kit disables the DRL on its own. All I know is that it's working perfectly and I couldn't be happier.
