    i like it. . i'll take a pic of hte beam pattern later this week.. the light output is great.. nice, clean and smooth . and it lights up the road really NICELY with not hot spots or glare..I looked at our housings and compared it ot my moms lexus RX300 with HID's.. Its somewhat similar.. it works a lot better than my firends Civic.. they have hte high and low beam all in one bulb.. so since we have seperate highs and lows it works a lot better in our cars

    hey zero.. yeah i disabled it... I was reading some sites before i disabled it.. midnightmoose claimed you dont have to disable DRLs, but I am pretty sure he is wrong.. Sending a lower voltage, with a higher current can potentially damage ur ballasts... I disabled it by cutting hte yellow wire and just grounding it. Only thing I dont like is we lose our automatic turn on feature. but oh wellz =p I like having control of my lights.. Heh..

    sweet...we did the same thing...i honestly hated having DRLs so i'm glad to be rid of them...i wouldn't have minded them if the DRLs were running off of the highbeams like all the other toyotas and lexus's do :p
