Daytime running lights

MikeJones · June 10th, 2010, 11:12 PM

I'd like to shut mine off. Can anybody give me a sense of direction onto disableing it?

Scott2001GT · June 10th, 2010, 11:26 PM

How u have them? Our cars dont have them.

PeteGT · June 10th, 2010, 11:29 PM

Why would you take them off? All its gonna do is get you a ticket/inspection and you will have to put the relay back in... Its a Law in Canada about DRL's and any car coming into canada has to have them.

vita · June 10th, 2010, 11:30 PM

when you want to run the fogs and tails, the corners come on. I too thought about finding the fuse or something for them and yanking it. It was that simple on my monte carlo... im sure made it near impossible. haha

Scott2001GT · June 10th, 2010, 11:31 PM

oh thats what you guys on considering DRL....I just use that at sunset and sunrise.

PeteGT · June 10th, 2010, 11:32 PM

Also if you really want to I think the last mustang I took apart at work was under the front bumper/grill area but dont quote me on it. Its just a module that u can unplug.

Its just the law that everycar needs to have them. Its honestly not even that big of a deal...

DRLs are required in Canada and quite a few other countries so they're standard on every car. They come on automatically.

Scott2001GT · June 10th, 2010, 11:35 PM

I do not have them. My Grand Prix does but not the Mustang.

Idk what goes on across the border lol

PeteGT · June 10th, 2010, 11:44 PM

No american does ever though do they

love2cruz · June 10th, 2010, 11:59 PM

DRL delete was my first mod lol.

under the front bumper, drivers side. unplug the plug. it's a fairly obvious plug.

i run with my fogs and corners though. looks mean on a dropped stang IMO.

Scott2001GT · June 11th, 2010, 12:02 AM

that sucks dude. I can run corners and fogs by just pulling the headlight switch out half way. The tails come on too.

love2cruz · June 11th, 2010, 12:07 AM

me too but sometimes i forget and i hate the DRL look. it's my safety

edit: wait, your drl's turn off when you pull the switch make half way?

edit again: nm, i see you don't have any from factory. yeah i didn't want my headlights on with my corners and fogs.

same as mine

Beerhunter · June 11th, 2010, 12:17 AM

I don't think it is the law to have to drive with your DRL. They have to be imported or manufactured that way but I have yet to see a law that says you must drive with them on.

vita · June 11th, 2010, 10:19 AM

I never drive with them on. Unless its like 6pm and is getting "dusk", Ill pull it out half way for a little bit till I need my headlights.

Never been stopped for it.

dcook_14 · June 11th, 2010, 10:55 AM

What are you guys considering daytime running lights? I'm really confused...

Your headlights on running at a lower voltage

dcook_14 · June 11th, 2010, 11:08 AM

I didn't know our mustangs did that. I thought it was either off, switch halfway out turning on the fogs and corner lights, or switch all the way on and you could switch between regular and brights

In Canada they come that way but as far as I know, not in the US. But ya it sucks because you can't turn them off. If your parking brake is not on your lights will.
