[DML] Re: Daytime Running Lights (Type 2?)

["d_rex_2002" <rich@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Toby and others,

I was thinking of doing a similar project, but now that you have
done a lot of the leg work, maybe you can run with my idea as a
"Type 2" option for your DRL's.  My idea would allow use of DRL's
while keeping black-out headlight covers in place.

My idea was to use high output amber LED's inside the front turn
signal housings, using either in the stock bulb housing / wiring
or adding another dedicated socket and wiring to the OEM housing,
either to the side or above/below the stock socket.

I do like the look of the newer DRL's on the C5 Corvettes that
use some type of high output amber light at the corners in front.

Later,
Rich W.
