Question About Angel Eyes In Regards to DRLs

[Raek]

...so, I ordered Umnitza V2s. I totally dig how they look when tapped into the daytime running lights, and understand the install.

BUT...i bought my car with the DRLs disabled, so is there no way of hooking these up without re-enabling them?

I could always go through the parking lights, since that looks pretty chill as well...but, if it's easy enough to do it through DRLs, I'd much rather do that.

Sorry if this is a nooby question, but I am by NO means an electrical guy.

there is a wire under the engine bay that you can hook into that it your ACC wire so whenever your car is past position 1 they will be on.. This is how I wired mine (I also wired my remote wire to a light inside so I get them on with the remote and fade off after lock).. Do a search and you will find lots of DIYs..

Are you saying you want them to run as long as you have the key turned?
If so following the the instructions and tapping it into the accessory wire in the ECU box will do this.

I have mine hooked up into my ignition, whenever the ignition is on, my angel eyes are on too. Its the same as drl's basically.

Here, constant on when the car is on (like drl) and has the fade on and off function when you lock/unlock the car.

How hard is that to do?

Great vid but very hard lol . At least for me. I would rather get the whole headlights and put them on. Very simple

i wouldn't wanna f--k with the reliability of my stock HIDs by replacing them with aftermarket.

Easy. I've done a few installs and all but one have gone without any problems. On the one that I had issues with, his accessories wire did not trip the trigger wire for whatever reason.

If you want written instructions, see step 4.

It's not hard at all. It's like a 1 on the scale of 1-10.

Well maybe if i say "ok i will do it myself" and start doing it, i might succeed reading the instructions and etc. But right now looking at all these seems very complicated to me Yet you never achieve if you dont try right?
