Would like to post my first thread of which is wiring of day time running lights.

As my car is wired Negative switched and of which some of you guys are a where of i would like some advice on a system to work for me here in the UK of DRL`S on with ignition and and dim when side lights on.

This also being legal for drivers this side of the pond.

Thanks in advance and again glad to be here and hopefully give back some knowledge i have gained through the years and owning three great cars.

Hi and welcome. My maternal grandfather came from Nottingham. To entertain us as children he'd pull out a sliver of flint claiming that he'd found it in Sherwood Forest. When we'd say 'Robin Hood', he'd say 'Who?' Worked every time.

I think your car already has DRLs installed. They can be activated by the dealer.

 

Hi Mikey.

Thanks for reply.

Love your story regarding your Grandfather .

Just shows its a small world.

Where in Nottm was he from ???
