I've recently purchased a 2001 Canadian-spec Type R. I was hoping to upgrade the low beam headlights to a HID system. Unfortunately, this isn't compatible with the daytime running lights.
Anyone familiar with disabiling the DRL?
Thanks,

How to disable daytime running lights on Canadian-spec ITR?
Quote from http://www.HIDS4less.com
"There is a problem however if the DRL is installed on the set of lights that you are going to be upgrading to xenon. DRL'S run at a reduced wattage to save power. This reduced wattage does not have enough power to ignite the bulb. The solution to this is to disconnect the DRL, which most of the time is as simple as pulling a fuse, Relay or unplugging a connector."
