HID's and Daytime Running Lights

Hey guys, new here, just picked up my Yaris this weekend and installing mods all week.

I noticed that a lot of people have problems with DRL and HID's because low beam voltage is different for DRL vs normal low beam. I measured my canadian car and got 10V for DRL and 12V for normal low beam.

So I'm building a small relay that basically uses the lowbeam 10V/12V for control, and feeding 12V back to the harness. This would make DRL operation as well as normal low beam operation 12V to the bulb/harness/HID, etc. We're not allowed to disable DRL's in Canada, so I figured this is the best way to go to have HID as well as DRL.

Wondering if anyone's done the same thing?
