Amber DRL/Signals mod

^

 

mesojdm is a LED God around here...and like all Gods and Goddesses, he's only famous among his own kinds.

 

i am interested in how you wired this up.
can you post the info?
thanks

 

Yup. I'll draw it up tonight

Thanks for the info.
it looks like you only need a relay and some re-wire here.
it seems like the led light is optional. i think the stock lights
on the truck are less than 6A and the relay is rated for 40.

 

It's pretty rad.

 

Did you ever find an amber drl board? All I have found are the led switchback boards that double as white drl's and Amber turn signals.

Yes, I modified the Original DRL board with amber LEDs

 

The Peasant Mod

 

Each or the pair? Your stock h11s are like 1100-1400 lumens each...

So i vote way too much, bro. Blinding oncoming traffic im sure!

 

It sounds like a lot but the signal reflectors can only throw so much light out and it scattered so unless you stare at it at the exact skewled angle it not at all intense. In fact I want it a bit brighter but 7440 only come so much.
Remember DRL on other cars are high beam with lessen intensity. So if my amber is blinding people it's doing its job.

 

My SR has the amber DRL's. They're kind of bright and definitely a little second genish.

 

Love the amber drl! Where did you purchase? I’ve seen some that are switchback. I just want full amber drl. Does that exist?

 

Love the amber drl!
Me too
Where did you purchase?
Made them
I’ve seen some that are switchback.
Yes Diode Dynamic Boards
Does that exist?
Only mine

 

Of course they are one of a kind custom. Nice job!

 

thanks! White DRL's are played out IMO. They come on a a base Kia now a days. The amber stands out

 

I loved Amber since my rice rockets days. People were clearing out their corners. Hated that! But the reason for this in the Tacoma is so that I could go back to halogen bulbs. I got led headlights just to match drl but the output on the led is horrible. And the stock halogen/drl looks terrible. But stock halogen and Amber drl would look sweet!
