They're not called 'Neon LED' strips are they? If they are, any idea of where I could get my hands on some suitable stuff...?

This sort of thing, only in white obviously.

Thanks again.

Why are you looking up DRL law?

Just class them as sidelights.

You might as well just have sidelights on and leave it at that... Besides, strictly speaking, you'd still need a relay to drop the power of the DRLs whilst the dipped/sidelights are on. Thought I'd ask...

this one dims or off, both options

and this one puts them off with lights but dims them when indicationg

i also see them refer to being can-bus error free,
but if your fitting after market drl's they dont need to be canbus because your wiring them in yourself and not puting them through the cars ecu system, so you wouldnt need to worry about canbus mate,

if i was fitting them id buy this one mate,

i didnt need to use one because mine came as a specific kit for the focus and had the auto dim feature in the kit. but if it didnt come with it, i would have bought the blue one above.

Mate, you are a legend. This is now exactly what I was looking for. That last blue one looks best for me, so I'll buy that and install it asap. I'll drop a photo on here to show the finished work!

This is what forums are all about. A free site with people sharing their knowledge. Classic stuff - cheers Lenny!

Hi Alex,
their are pre wired looms available on ebay for fitting DRL's that depending on how you hook them up, you would have an option to either have the drls switch off when you turn on your lights or dim by 50% when you switch on your lights

Cheers for that Lenny, that's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for! I don't suppose you'd know how to wire it to get the 50% dimming function would you? That's what I'd prefer tbh...

Hi there guys -

Firstly, thanks to benholden2008. Have been following the step by step guide which was cracking, so thanks.

In addition to it though. I want to fit after market LED DRLs to my new model Fiesta Zetec S 59 plate. I've been reading up about it, and according to UK law on fitting DRLs, they must light automatically on ignition but turn off once sidelights are applied. This would therefore go against attaching the lights via cable lock connectors to the sidelights. Firstly, does anyone know whether this is definitely the case? That being so, how could you wire the lights so they do meet UK Law standards on DRLs?

Any help would be really appreciated as I'm stumped about this one...

Cheers,

Alex
