Default Daytime running lights on crx ?

In Canada any car after 1990 needs DRL !
I just bought a U.S. CRX and it needs them !
Does anyone know how or have a wiring diagram on how to re-wire the headlights so that when you release the handbrake, the lights would come on...


thanks

You can buy aftermarket DLR kits at most auto parts stores or on the net... maybe even on ebay.

If you do happen to stop off at a junkyard to get all the necessary DRL parts, you will need the big resistor box that is found up by the front bumper. It looks similar to an injector resistor box. You will also need the relay fron under the dash - its on the glove box side.

Also, if you happen to get those from the junkyard, get me a set too! I've been trying to get a few Canadians to hook me up, but the fall thorugh every time!

Whoa! Sorry about the big *** pic! LOL

I posted that up a long time ago on a different message board... forgot that the pic was supersized!

anyway, the resistor box is different than an injector resistor box. The resistor values are different.

hey if you happen to go to a junkyard and remove these items, would you be willing to do it twice???? you going to the n10 meet next week in niagra, i'll be there. if not, if you are nice enough to remove the wiring and resistor box under bumper i would love to purchase it from u for my usdm si... i have the relay box just no wiring or relay box

u would rock for that, i'd give u atleast 50$ shipped.
