Gee, jczboy, I get static for not posting links. Didn't you post a how-to on that.

Yep... But I think I should write a more in depth one with some wiring pictures that I learned along the way. Just need the time.
I also want to start doing some tips that anyone can do to save some money.

I personally would not want to do anything to my car that will make it harder to be seen. It is a safety issue.

Wait till some one pulls out in front of you on an overcast day because they don't see you. Recently I almost pulled out in front of a grey car on a overcast hazy day because the car blended into the road. I think DRL ought to be required on all cars. If you rember the comercial when Chevy first introduced them, a car was sitting in the shadows on a bright sunny day and you could not see it until the DRLs were turned on. Just my 2 cents worth.

Ron, I respect your opinion. But let me ask you this: How many accidents, injuries and deaths are associated with cell phones? DRLs are helpful if you're paying attention. Cell phones, on the other hand, are an outright distraction. If I had my way, cars wouldn't be able to start up if there's a cell phone on.
