DRL switchback conversion AMBER while driving
I want to change my DRL's so they a white while driving during the day. Watching one of the vendors videos on youtube showing the change out to the LED bulbs and the addition of the resistors (so they don't hyperflash when the turn signal is activated).
In the video I noticed that during the day the DRL's function as AMBER when the car is in drive. The DRL's are white when the headlights are on or in parking light mode but AMBER with the car in Drive.
Bottom line: I only want the DRL's to be amber when a turn signal is activated.
My main objective is I want them to be white when I'm driving the car during the day.
Am I missing something here?
Thanks,
Mark

Sharp Light Innovations has everything you need to accomplish this. Bulbs and both hyper flash harnesses. I have had mine for over four years and still work great.

I got the ones from Sharp Light Innovations when they were called Radioflyer Innovations. Work great. And yes, DRL's are white not amber.

FYI, Try the lights without the harness as you may like the "hyperflash". IMHO, hyperflash is not that "hyper" and actually looks better and is more attention-getting. If you do get the harness it increases the install time by about 3 seconds ( LOL) and you'll have a normal flash rate. Look around there is a perfect hole in the metal frame nearby to mount the resistor of the harness.
