08.5, no daytime running lights

[mazdaskit]

I think running a car without DRL is much cleaner.
But that may be just me.
Once I start tinkering with my HID install, I will most likely remove the DRL fuse.

i removed mine after a week i got angel eyes i hate the ugly color lol & i got blue bulbs too & i still dont like it

Thanks everybody for insight

I have no idea where to find that so I guess I'll just pull fuse for now. If u happen to come across that relay pm me. Thanks

I have high and lowbeams installed.

And there's your problem right there. The way the 8.5s use the highbeams for DRL is by running the bulbs at half-voltage. This is done by connecting the bulbs in series when in DRL-mode... which, in addition to halving the voltage for both bulbs, reverses the voltage on one of them. Neither of which will work, at least not with after-market HIDs.

Pull the HIDs from the high-beams and put the halogens back in. If you want more light use something like the 9011 HIR bulbs.
