Re: Daytime Running Lights

John, In my '94 car the module was just above and behind the brake pedal.
It
plugged into a provided connector in the wiring harness and the module
attached to the firewall with a screw. The extra visibility is worth it.
One
fellow above mentioned dodging other drivers running stop signs but he
mentioned that he saw no value to the DRL's. If the other driver saw you,
he
probably would not run the stop sign in front of you unless he actually
had
a deathwish. Being broadsided usually hurts. I doubt that you could just
make one but if you can go for it. The module operates the headlights at
about half intensity and leaves the rear lights off. I would not imagine
that the connector is completely missing from your car. Auto parts stores
sell a universal adapter kit for $20-$30 if you get stymied and/or don't
like the idea of getting the $100 OEM part.
