Projector headlights and using them as my DRL and signal lights

[porkchop]

So I got these on eBay, should be coming in the mail any day now...



Here's what I want to do though...
I know these are plug and play, and you simply tap into the power of the parking lights to give power to the LEDs. That sounds easy enough and I think I can do that myself.

However, what I'd like to do instead is 2 things.

1. I'd like to have the angel eyes and LEDs running as my daytime running lights instead of the bulb. So I don't even want to draw power from the DRL wire, I want to disable it completely or have it only give power to the LEDs when my Daytime Running Lights are supposed to be running.

2. From what I see, it appears these lights include a spot for a turn signal light. I'd like to use the turn signal with this housing and disable the other stock turnsignal lights completely. Would I simply put the turnsignal bulb in the projector housing or does this come with a wire which draws power like the LEDs? How would I go about doing this? If this works, I'll probably just put vinyl or something over the stock turn signals.

I hope this all makes sense and I hope somebody here can help me out.... I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm not even looking for somebody to hold my hand as to what to do, just somewhat give me general directions on how I would go about doing these things...

to make this slightly easier on yourself, disable the DRL. the turn can be stolen from the light in the bumper yes.

hooking up the led and angel eyes is up to you. You could do it as parking lights from the bumper light, but it is more difficult to try to tie it into the drl system.

Disabling the DRL is a good idea... is there power I can tap the angel eyes into that are on all the time? Tapping into parking light, that wouldn't have the LEDs on all the time would it? Because if the angel eyes would be on during the day or all the time, then I may as well disable the DRL.

if you use the parking light wires to turn them then you would turn them on with the first turn of the headlight switch, the just would go out when you turn on the headlights.. unless you wire in a something to do so.

Ah okay. I didn't realize that. In the 6 years I've owned this car I've never actually checked what the first turn of the light switch actually did. That's good enough for me then, I mean, ideally I'd like to have the LEDs always on but that sounds a lot easier to do. I'll just disconnect the DRL and tap into the parking light power.

Okay, thanks a lot. I think I know what I'm going to do now.
