    Is it possible to have the DRL LED's on when the head lights are on? I know that they dim when headlights come on, but I wanted to see if there was a way to keep them on the brighter setting, or does it cause any problems.

    I haven’t seen a solution to this yet. Would be nice.

    Lol, yes I thought they were as well until I turned the parking lights/fog lights only in the garage the other day and that was when I noticed the difference between the headlights on and parking lights on with the DRL's.

    It could be a DOT restriction similar to no fogs with brights.

    I've been seeing newer cars with led headlights and bright as hell DRLs almost like they don't need headlights

    We like to complicate things here. Instead of fixing small issues, we rather just build an entire new headlight :D
