well here I am again, 2002 grand prix
HI, I just changed my headlights to Halogen High Beam and HID low Beams. Now my Daytime running lights (DRL) are my HD low beams and I would Like them to be the Halogen HI Beams/ Have you any suggestions? Is there a wire I can change over from Low to hi beam?
Any info greatly appreciated
regards
Russ.

just disable the drls. easiest, quickest, IMO the most effective

Why would you want your high beams on during the day? You'd be blinding everyone during the day. Just disable them like he said^

Canada it is a law for DRL.
HI beam would only appease the police , they dissipate so quickly in daylight you would only see the yellow glow.

can a fog light count as a drl? If you REALLY need it just turn your headlights on when you get in.....DRLS are gonna kill your HID quick.

OK . the Headlight switch it is. Now can I pull a fuse to stop the lights from flashing when I remotely lock the car?

theres a link around here...ill find it...i had to find it for miker56 last night too...its in the owners manual also.

You know how to disable the drl's right?

Use backinblack's page for reference to disable the DRL's. He has a lot of information in there as well if you want to disable the automatic headlight feature and manually control rhem.
Headlamp Control
Also you can reroute the DRL's to the fogs.
DRL circuit Re-route to fog lamps
You can do this to have the corners flash instead of the headlights to not burn out the ballasts.

when you open the driver door thers a little cover thingy. pop that off and inside is a heat sink with a connector on it..disconnect it and done....ive had mine like that for quite a while and it works fine. I'm sure theres other ways but I think thats the easiest.

well I need them in BC

you get it done?

Thanks for all the explanations and help. so far so good. all is well.
low beam outshines the Halogen Hi-beams and the fancy ion spark fog lamp replacements look good but not much more light on the road (I believe it is because of the HID low beams)

LED Daytime running lights (LED DRL) are a low-cost method to reduce crashes. It can improve the noticeability and detectability of vehicle in the central and peripheral fields of view.
