LED DRLs - No battery connection needed
I have not seen these mentioned (I tried searching).
I have seen similar but everyone seems to be using iJDMToys battery harness.
I installed these yesterday and they work. Seem pretty bright. I have no error on my dash and these inline decoders do not require being connected to battery or grounded.
Less than $60 shipped and I received them next day in California.
The pictures were taken at 9pm in California.

Nice find, a alternative option to the VLED 10XB bulbs.
Your amazon ones look pretty bright. It would be nice to see a picture comparison side-by-side with the 850 lumen 10XB VLED ones.
Do they look like they have a hint of purple? Most CREE LEDs I've seen always had a tinge of purple in the light output. Far from pure white 5k. Your pictures look nice and bright though I wonder how many lumens they are rated

I do not notice any purple, they are rated 6000K according to the specs on the site and look less blue that I thought they would. The description says CREE (also GREE) but none of my packaging said anything about CREE.
The pic on amazon says 11w (~750 lumens).

the harness is simple a load resistor to eliminate dash light. this harness does not come with a relay to the battery like the ijdmtoy one. should be fine with this led, but running higher powered LEDs may require a relay harness

For the price and convenience I will definitely suggest these.

If you do decide on these let us know what you think about them as well.
EDIT: I was wondering how long the ijdmtoy lights lasted before they took a crap? Also, was it the lights or the decoder?

I might be wrong, though.

@hgigh - the ijdm drl's only lasted a couple months, then my driver side drl started flickering and staying off and became temperamental. No CEL or dash lights came on. So in trouble shooting with the drl's on, the connections where the relay is were loose and didn't want to mess with it so I removed it.
