I don’t usually change out the high beam bulb because I never use them.

Question for you. Do your switch-backs flicker/start out orange when you start the car? I noticed today that when I start the car, the DRLs flicker twice then stay off. When I disengage the parking brake they illuminate orange for a couple seconds, shut off & then come on white. I’ve got the RadioFlyer Innovations switchbacks.

Thanks!

P.S: I'd want my DRLs to remain Amber (more brighter than OEM) during the day and when turn signals used, but turn White ONLY when Low beams are used at night.

I don’t believe I have experienced that yet. Mine are white with the headlights on, otherwise amber.

That is exactly the way mine function. I got all three items on the big auction site.

I have the fog lights. I'm holding off on the rest until I have my headlight lenses replaced.

Can you please PM me the link?

And how is the brightness on the Low beams & Fog lights? I know there's another vendor here sells same items. Lot of guys buy from them, however, the price is a factor too.

Thanks again!
