Question for those with halo's in your headlights

What bulbs are you using in your DRLs to match the color of the halo rings? What bulbs/LEDs are you using in your side markers to also match the DRLs and Halos?

I'm planning on eventually having JnC do my headlights (including Halo rings) but want to make sure all the colors in the headlights are as close to each other as possible.

Thanks.

That thought came to mind actually... simple as unplugging the bulb, correct?

I'm in Northern NJ, currently Weehawken... soon to be in the Nutley / Belleville area (hopefully).

Anyone else want to share their setups?

So you're rocking Halos but with yellow fogs right next to them? You have any pictures

Curious as to how to rigged you parking lights to blink only and not go on when you turn your parking lights on.

You just have to put a piece of electrical tape over the contact in the bulb that leads to the parking light. Leave the other one alone. It won't get any juice when the parking lights are on, only when the blinker is on.

As you see in the picture below of a 1157 bulb, the shot to the right, there are 2 contacts at the bottom, just cover one with electrical tape and test. If the parking light turns on, then move the tape to the other one. Voila!

There are three wires on the 04 TL parking bulb. The one wire in the center is the Parking light. Cut it and cap it, or use mglax's tape method. Done and done.

MY question is how are you getting the foglights to come on without the main headlights??
