@infidelcastro5129 3 жыл бұрын

If I may be an old whiny git... I agree - DRLs should, by law, light the rear of the vehicle too. I see far too many people driving in bad light, fog and heavy rain with their DRLs on, thinking they’re perfectly visible, without bearing in mind that their vehicle is unlit at the rear. Vehicle lighting is as much about being seen as it is about seeing where you’re going. Great video 😊

@@Garron88 Yes, indeed. The big plus for me is that with their 5000k output they make the car so much more visible to others. Especially as you would only have those feeble yellow halogens otherwise!

@bertiesworld Жыл бұрын

I've just had this kit arrive. No sign of a fuse holder and the supply wire isn't white but black. No real problem really. I've already got a control relay from the existing DIY DLR mod (that has given up the ghost on one side and is all disconnected). Christmas job to remove the existing LED strips and fit this nice little mod.. The wife will be happy. I couldn't agree more with the comment about DLR and the rear lights. Get worse actually, even more so, if you have auto lights. I've noticed in foggy conditions, especially in daylight, the car tends to turn the main lights off, with just the DLR left on. Nowadays, I manually turn on the main lights if there is intermittent foggy conditions. It might also explain why there seems to be an increase in people driving around with front and rear fog lights on, even when it doesn't really warrant it. This is a guaranteed way to keep the main lights on.

@aceJacek Жыл бұрын

how about Scandinavian AYGO, where DRL are in standard, and regular headlamps are used (the only difference from normal lights is that all interior backlight is off when in DRL mode). Is there a known way to reroute it to this custom hack?

@DARTraderMediaProductions 4 жыл бұрын

I really like this and a great idea. The only thing that I have a query with is you don't have any way of dimming them or turning off when the side lights or headlights are on. I thought this was a legal requirement in the UK that they should dim or go off if head/side lights are on. I suppose you could just add a cheap control unit to the live feed and side light feed maybe. Great work, thinking of getting either a C1, 107 or Aygo so just subscribed. Thanks.

@CycloneCyd 4 жыл бұрын

Hi there, thanks for subbing, welcome aboard. Although Government ADVICE is that it is preferred if DRLs extinguish when headlights are turned on, it IS NOT mandatory under EU law. So you may choose to do so, or not. if you want them to, simply introduce a single pole relay to feed the white DRL wire.

@elusive62 Ай бұрын

Nice video mate, but you didn't mention the fact DRL's are too bright to be used at night and dazzle other drivers which can give you a fine and points, so its better for you to wire them routed into the cab where you have a switch to disconnect the connection from vcc. I would guess it would extend the DIY work by anything between 30 mins to 1 hour depending on if you want a neat job or a rough and tough job. but based on your video, you go for a fairly nice neat job.
