Canadian TLs have Daytime Running Light which is connected in series with another part of the vehicle (can't remember exactly which part it is) and is hence drawing 6~7V only. I replaced the bulbs with 3400K ones, in hope for some white light but they are only a little whiter. Now can anyone please tell me is it true that if i replace those bulbs with higher rated ones (like 5000K) it will get whiter and whiter, and eventually completely white? Like, is it true that a 5000K rated bulb that draws 7V will emit the color of a 3400K(let say) one?

Thanks in advance.

 

Both DRL lamps are wired in series to each other, thus working only on t Volts. All color temperature ratings are for 14 Volts, and will change dramatically, when connected to 7V.
While your logic is correct, it is hard to tell how lamps will behave.

 

I replaced my DRLs with "blue" lights but was careful to put in 65W bulbs, not 100W. With 100W bulbs, it was really not bright at all. I think the stock bulbs are 60W. I can't remember the exact numbers, it was a couple months ago.

 

Thanks guys, I appreicate your inputs~~
