    Hi All,

    I notice the Daytime LED will turn off when you turn on the headlights. Is there a way to have them on for 1/2 the intensity? Has anyone done this modification?

    Most cars that use LED for DRL normaly light up at 1/2 the intensity when the headlights come on. I am surprise that our PIP do not.

    Thank you!

    I believe that powering them in series will reduce the brightness to 1/2 of their full brightness, which occurs when they are wired in parallel.
