DRL on non DRL base model?

I have a 2008 Luxury C300 base model.

It doesn't have DRL lights, just the round non bi-xenon's

Will something like this work on my car?

Perhaps most don't understand why anyone would want to remove functional fog lamps to replace them with a useless alternative, and never looked into the feasibility?

Rob G - thanks!


Sport stick - I had a 2013 c250 and it had the led drl on it just like the ones I posted here, and I thought they looked pretty cool. Just a personal preference I guess. Maybe you're right though, can I just hid my non hid fog lights?

That's a really good question if it could improve the fog lamp performance! Michael from AZNOptics is the expert here on lighting. Perhaps a PM to him or he is reading this?

I think no one is really replying because this has already been posted before. Just search. The car has been out for a long time now so most things/issues has already been discussed here on this forum
