    Always good to wait, research, read reviews and see how things go. Hard sometimes when you see something and want to pull the trigger quick. I’ve held back on a few things for months to see how things went. Some I’m glad I waited for, rather pay for something once that’s good than pay several times upgrading.

    Where in the world did you find the DRL fuse? Can’t find it for the life of me...

    I think I’ve taken some people post it’s in a different fuse box, a smaller one adjacent to the big one

    Has anyone had and issues running these lights on a non runnin4tacos grill? My eBay grill just came in and there are a few minor imperfections on the plastic webbing that i am wanting to position these lights in.

    Anyone else have these plugged into the INJ slot so they are on when the truck turns on? Anyone downside to that?

    @Jes11s after some digging, if found out why your lights stayed on when you tapped the 10A DRL fuse. It looks to be a constant power fuse, that feeds the DRL relay. When the ECU wants the DRLs on, it sends voltage to the DRL relay, which turns on. Diagram below:


    Now, to find out if that relay has another contact, or how to join the existing contact without splicing :annoyed:

    Anytime man, it helps us all. I think I’m going to solder mine directly into the green DRL wires. My DRL’s come on with my low beams too, so that way they’ll be on with DRL only and with low beam head lights.
