Default Which do you like better?

I replace the stock DRL/turnsignal yellow bulbs with APC super white bulbs. I wanted them to match the PIAA 1100X driving lites that I just installed.

They don't look that bright when they are on with the PIAAs.

Will have to check it out at nite.

Great driving lights! :cool:

Personally, I removed the fuse for my DRLs...did not want them on.

WHY???????????????????? :confused:
Several reasons. One being how obvious the car is from a distance on the interstate (good for other motorists, but bad for me and radar). also, the wifey can spot my car at the track easier, b/c it is the corvette w/o DRLs. :D

Why not just shut them off from the driver's control panel?

As far as I know, you can only turn off the DRLs by pulling a fuse.

I believe it is under options. I turned mine off from there while playing with all the settings. I turned them back on though because I like the idea of some knucklehead being able to see me a little better.
