DRL & HID Question
I have searched high and low and cannot seem to find this answer. My understanding with the DRL's is that they run the low beam bulb at half power during the day, and go to full power at night when the sensor senses that your lights are needed. Sometimes, during the day, when I pull into my garage I will notice the lights get brighter.
Now the question, if I install HID's, how does this affect the operation of the DRL function? Can the HID's run at half power? Anything I need to do when I install the HID's?
Thank you,
Mike T.
