Daytime Runnig LIghts.

I lurk on the Edmunds sienna prices paid and buying experiences DB. And
someone there is claiming to be able to enable non-DRL vehicles to have
DRL's.

I have 'em on my Camry, but would like to have them without having to
pay for them on a Sienna. Anyone know if this can be done as claimed
and how? And if it can be done on any other toyo models?

There are kits available from a lot of places to turn your lights into
DRL's

You can also wire up relays to do it, but the procedure is beyond the
scope of this NG.

Try Google and see what comes up. It is fairly simple but tough to
describe.

This topic in reverse was my introduction to this newsgroup. It was a
ridiculously long thread with so much bickering and name-calling that
it was worse than these political discussions.

Yeah, yeah! You wanted to kill them! I did too! I drove a giant oaken
stake through the heart of mine and chanted ancient Runic curses against
their very existence to make sure they'd never come back! Yeah!

By the way, anyone who wants to kill theirs can either read the relevant
Toyota TSB (EL011-00), or email me and I'll tell you how I did it (simpler
than the TSB).

Now watch closely, Grasshopper...as the flames begin!

The DRL ECU may also be used for the "Twilight Sentinel" function, so may
be present even in vehicles not nominally equipped with DRLs.

Philip is probably your best authority on this subject.

Tegger, please email it to me if you would.
I tried to email you but your address is not an email.
TIA.

Nope, no flames from me. Darwin's Law will eventually prevail against those
who remove their DRL's. Some sight challenged driver won't see your vehicle
and BOOM, you are no more.

If you're depending on DRLs to keep you safe you have worse problems
than DRLs will fix.

Most new cars don't even have them anymore. What will you do then?

BTW John, my friend with the recently acquired 2002 Tundra wants the DRLs
deactivated too. Is there a specific bulletin on that procedure?

Have you bothered to tour a late model auto dismantler's yard to count the
number of DRL equipped cars that found there way there? According to you,
they shouldn't be there. But of 7 late model Jettas I looked (needed a
couple of interior parts), 4 were there due to front end collisions.

Personally, I detest them and killed them shortly after purchase on my
Matrix. It was easy, there are several methods that work.

I've been running with headlights on since 1986. In some states, an Amateur
Radio operator is considered an Emergency vehicle, and Emergency Vehicles
must run with their headlights on at all times. . . .

It's amazing how many people don't even see you in the daytime even with
full headlights on . . . .
