How to wire DRL's?

[Mike61096]

Saw this video on youtube on this guys slammed DA and I liked his Fog light DRL's he had. How could I go about achieving that look? Since the fog lights on my car can only be turned on when the low beams are on, I have no idea how to do this. Also, it appears as if he's using a 3000k HID kit for the fog lights as well. Does this seem accurate?

All you need to do is cut the power wire to the switch and run a wire to it that has key on power. Onn G2IC there is a write up on how to splice the wire into the power of the defroster switch or you can run a wire to your fuse box to a spare slot that accepts a spade connector.
Those are OEM one pieces that have the yellow bulb capsules stock. Likely just standard bulbs.

you can get the yellow fog capsules out of a Legend and they will fit in the 3 peice assembly perfectly from what I hear... Lots of guys round this area have done it and say those capsules screw right in.

Exactly what BrokenTalon said

Method 1

Method 2 (Easier and I did it to about 4 Integra's in my time)

As the yellow fog lights. In that picture those are OEM JDM 1 piece headlights that have little yellow capsules in them to make that affect... But as the old guy mentioned, You can get little yellow capsules from a 1st gen Acura Legend and they will fit perfectly in the stock 3 piece design... Take out the 8MM (i think) nut on the edge of the lights, pull it out, Take out the bulb and assembly, you'll see 3 tabs just stick it in and lock in place.

:thumbup: Your welcome.

The fog light capsules are easily found at junkyards, But I think you might have to break the housings on the Legends to get to them.

Update. Got myself some legend fog capsules. Looks much better now.
