    Sweet! I like them! My other prob I have daytime running lights, I assume I will need to disable them, don't really care for it anyway.

    Im not too sure, but they should work with the DRL as well....basically you remove the stock bulbs/plug and plug your wires to the new plug on the lights

    Right but they work off the same bulb filament as the turn signal. It wouldn't be bad it if were a different bulb or circuit. When the turn signal is on, it flashes the running light that is on. Kinda sucks!

    You guys who specifically buy pre-runners:

    Do you do so for the highspeed off-road-baja-like handling characteristics or just couldn't afford to buy a 4x4 and had to compromise?

    I've always wondered. Pre-runners get stuck on flat ground in wet grass.....(still scratching my head as to why exactly folks seek these out other than baja rig)

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    I hope you're banned cause you are narrow minded and an inconsiderate asshole that needs to be sat down and shown that the world does not revolve around you and that you are not always right.

    No one has really answered my question as to the appeal of Pre-runners.

    I do imagine they would rule in the long-high-speed stretches of baja....they may get better gas mileage too. Is it about the better gas mileage? Just curious.
    Thanks gang.

    rngrchad, you're in the negative on rep, so when you try to leave someone any type of rep, its neutral and doesn't do anything. Just thought i'd let you know....you will be banned soon.
