These LEDs for the DRL retain the Hi-beam function? Isn't the output less than stock?

I have em too. I love the way they look at dusk/dawn. I would do them again if I had the choice. Ohh yeah, make sure you zip tie them. I used a lot of them to make sure they don't move around or get tangled in anything.

just installed 30W CREE LED DRL, I had the 25W and while the high beams weren't 100% gone it wasn't effective enough....the 30W has an additional SMD (2 ttl) on the front of the bulb so hopefully it'll give me a decent high beam, but I doubt it....I'll report back here when I take a drive at nite.

the DRL looks awesome tho...very bright even at reduced power.
