No problem happy to help for the dimming to work your DRL must be at least 6watt each

On the wiring diagrams that people have created, I see another Relay loom attached to the white wire. Is this still needed or can the white wire be directly spliced into the parker positive?

Just too creep in.. But has anyone had any issues what so ever with this Mod?? In regards with the Police question them?
I have this exact set up and find myself getting flashed by on coming cars.
I'm running 6000k HID's as well as the DRL mod.. I guess I'm just a little paranoid about the Police pulling me over.

I've been through numerous booze buses in Melbourne and not once have any police members said anything to me. I'm still using normal headlight bulbs (Philips Crystal Vision) though and my DRL's dim to 50% when headlight/parkers are on.
Maybe your 6000k HIDs are too bright and that's why your getting flashed.

The DRL definitely dims, but I'm not sure how much.. I think down to 70%. I purchased it off G-Unit Customs. I may look into changing my lights. How do thePhillips crystal visions perform?

Haven't tried other bulbs so can only compare to stock bulbs. The crystal vision low beam bulbs perform better then the standard bulbs IMO. Have a look on page 5, I posted a video of my lights with the upgraded bulbs and dimmed DRLs.

I have crystal vision too for low beam and have been pulled over in a booze bus and the police haven't said anything. The Crystal Visions look like the Caprice lights. White light rather than yellow. Parkers are now also white.

I might look into buying some. I just feel with the HID's they attract too much attention and I would hate to be defected for everything.
Do you also have the DRL mod?

More than likely
