Default daytime running lights

hi guys: it turns out that the Canadian government wants me to install daytime running lights on my US 1996 sl500. I believe there's a DRL module that's required. Once I get this, what else is necessary to make the DRL work and how do I hook it all up? All help appreciated!

aside from the daytime lamp control module, you may need a separation relay.

almost all hot wires will be re-routed to the daytime lamp control module and you may need another fuse separately or internal.

it's not really a tough job since it only involves about 10 wires and nothing much parts to remove. in my case, i will do it in half day.

you need the wiring diagram. with and without the daytime running lamp control module.

i can give you all for 1 cent.

geez Sleepwalker, I don't know... you drive a hard bargain... Is that US $0.01 or Canadian?
but I'm willing to raise you on your asking price!

Could you please send me this info? I'm at spedy4437@yahoo.ca .
And let me know where to send your cheque!
thanks, Ron

ok, i will send it to you next week for weekend is coming.

PM me your VIN or post here. i need that to look for the right wiring diagram.

i prefer US$ 1cent because it is bigger.

it wont be worth the paper and printing for check.

just remind me next week to send it just i case i sleepwalk again.
