    Thanks I cant see how making my patrol more visable is wrong.
    But Ill stick to the plan if they are too bright I'll face them up a bit, lol\

    I know the thread is 1yr old, but thanks 4bye4 for the details and instructions, I wired mine virtually identically.
    I used these 4x of these @ ~$1.50ea: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1Pcs...336903286.html
    The aluminum backing allows them to be bent slightly so they're curved to the shape of the headlights and sit under the headlight protectors.

    While the Ebay vendor sent me a NO rather than NC relay, the DRL's are wired pin 87A and works fine (until they send me the dedicated NC relays).

    4x ~$1.50 of the lights, a relay and some wire, they appear to be as bright as those on most other cars.

    Wouldn't doubt that at all, but do doubt the legality of using them as driving lights though

    I have no way to measure if they are "more than 400 and less than 800 Cd" but they conform to the other legalities mentioned on the previous page.

    They appear to be about the same brightness as what is seen on many newer Euro cars, in daylight they draw attention without dazzle, which is what they're intended to do.
