so, i want to put hids in the monte, but i dont want the drls(i know they are in the high beam section) on and i dont want my lights to flash when opening the car. because if i have hids and they flash, thats no bueno for my bulbs…any help is appreciated!

 

Are you putting HID's on the high and low beam's? I have them just on the lows and I never even use my high beams. Also the bulbs are available for like 15 bucks a set on ebay so I wouldn't worry about them coming on when you unlock the car. Ive had mine for a year or so with no problems at all also they do have a few seconds of warm up time but no flicker.

 

Same here dont have to worry bout the flash & i got hid highs but i hadda wire it up myself to its own switch

 

If you still have the factory radio you can disable the FOB light feature through it by selecting mode 1 (off). That way your lights won't flash when you lock/unlock the vehicle. You might be able to change the mode without the factory radio, but I don't know what that procedure is. Maybe someone else might know.

 

im planning on just purchasing lows. i want to know how to turn off the day time running lights, how do i do that? is there a fuse or a plug i need to pull out? Because i know on my grand prix i just had to unplug a connector.
