Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior DRL replacements

Yeh, the drab yellow/white looks like crap. So, anyone know if the map light type bulb will work in the DRLs? Are these aka parking lights (DRLs I mean)?

DRLs use your HIGH beams at 40%. The parking lights are different.

the drls are 9005 and the parking lights are 194 wedge bulbs, but even with a hyper white its still yellow durin the day with the drl on

Just disable the DRL's if you don't like them, or turn on your regular lights.

I just unplugged those tiny little DRL's.

so, in affect..you unplugged your high beams as well.

Yep, i changed mines to hyperwhites. But during the day time its still yellow, but at night its white. That kinda sucks.

I put blue wedge style bulbs in mine, so it tints the chrome housing blue...looks great at night, but the DRL's are still yellow during the day...so i just run my low beams.

i dont get it really you have 3 bulbs in your celi, right? one is low beam, another is high beam and there is this tiny bulb on the side which is DRL, right? Now to change DRL, which one do i need from celi store? is it the tiny Polarg 194/168 (M4) Hyper White Wedge (pair) ?? thanks. and is it really worth gettin them if they still look yellow during the day?

help..

again - the DRL uses the high beams on low power. What you are looking at is the parking light (wedge bulb) If you want white DRLs you need a new high beam bulb.
