    converting fog lights to day time running lights on 06 euro lux

    thinking of this project, basically changing the fog light bulb (never had the need to use fog lights) to an LED based bulb with resistors to give a dim white light for running in the day.

    Has anyone already done this or am i wasting my time?

    cheers

    probably wasting your time and money as a good set of LED DRL's would cost a fair bit along with the load resistors, you may aswell just by crystal white bulbs and get the same effect or a cheap ebay HID kit for $50 in 6000k,
    though it is illegal to have your fogs on, even if u tried to tell them that u have converted them to DRL's they wont care,
    In the last week since last Sunday I have been pulled over 2 times for having my fog lights on, luckily they have let me off both times.

    better of just putting White SMD LED bulbs in your parkers which are super powerfull they will look like DRL's and wont be illegal.

    so they run in the day time haha lol

    Its normal in the states i think, just to let people see u also a little better by having them on, also turns ur rear lights on, which will help make people see you.

    I dont mind them as long as they have a chime so u dont forget to turn them off when you get out of ur car and get a drained battery.

    I don't get it.
    If it's dark enough, surely just use normal lights?

    Try it, it may look good and everyone else may want to do the same.

    whats wrong with DRL??? its on once the hand/foot brake been released. its a requirement in North America 15 yrs ago and proves that accident rate reduced by 10-15%. Australia just so behind and still not enforce to have that on every car.
