white led DRL with NO error message!

so my friends at ijdmtoy hooked me up with a white led drl with no error message. as all of you know, when you put in a led for DRL, you get the DRL error. so my friend added some sort of resistor then bam. no more errors! here are some pics and vids showing that theres no error. no night time pics yet, but im sure all of you know how it looks at night

the resistor on passenger side:

driver side:

the led!


video:
idk how to post videos here LOl. heres the link

Do you have a 'Plug N Play' resistor similar to this?

That does look good. How easy is it to change? I haven't even looked into what it takes to changes the DRL's (in the OM I imagine).

I'm like you, I've had mine since March 31, 2010 and have 4000 miles. I usually drive 450 miles each week and around 22,000 miles/year.

i had got my led drl's from ijdmtoy and ended up ordering resistors from them too, but i didnt like the idea of having to splice wires, i thought it was gonna be a plug & play deal so i returned all it back to them and ended up getting some jdm yellow drl's for now.
