    Why do you need DRL's for sir? Di naman low visibility palagi sa pinas... I would purchase a good set of fogs para maka aid sa headlights.

    just my 2 cents.

    fog lights are good lang pag talagang mababa ang visibility. short range lang kasi.

    iba ang function ng DRL vs. fog lights. Ano bang result gusto mo ma achieve?

    In the Philippines, there is no laws for requiring DRLs.

    And adding DRLs on older cars just makes the car look weird.

    IF you want more light when you drive at night, just go with the foglights.

    It's more likely for aesthetic purposes lang siguro.

    ang ayaw ko lang sa aftermarket installers ng DRL ay nakatap sa "park lights" ung system..its pointless

    well, personally, gusto ko maglagay ng DRL, ung LED types para masmadali ka mapansin sa road ng kapwa mong driver, pero naghahanap ako ng marunong magkabit-- dapat ang DRLs should light up when park lights are "off", engine is running, and kung maari--only moving forward ( sa AT madali, sa MT hindi)

    may installation procedure nga, per nakatap naman an source sa park....

    thanks guys for the inputs and advice actually aesthetic lang gusto ko ma achieve. Ghosthunter is correct weird nga tingan yung car pag old model na my ride 12 years old na. DLR (16 LED type) is more cheaper than fog light DLR cost 1,500 with complete set with fuse, switch, relay and wire; fog light assembly cost 3300. I dont have that budget for fog light.

    more inputs please thanks

    Then go for generic fog lamps. I had one installed and it only costs me 2,500 for the fogs and 600 for the super yellow bulb.

    And oh, its DRL as in Daytime Running Light

    I'd go for the foglight mounts. LED strips are just plain weird on older cars.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    .


    DRL - Kung dark sasakyan mo e pwede na rin para may safety purpose pero kung purely aesthetic, siguraduhin mo lang na babagay.

    Fog lamp - Ok din para may back up light ka pag alanganin ang weather.

    If it is not OEM, i'd rather not install DRL.
    IMO, purely aesthetics lang kase. Go for foglamps instead.

    May specific vehicles kung saan bumabagay yung DRL aside from Audi (na nagpasikat nitong DRL..)

    Kanya kanya naman yan eh. Kung sa paningin ng owner ay bagay, eh di ganun.

    Pero kung sakin, I wont. Lalo na 12 years old na pala yung kotse. Wala naman akong naiisip na sasaknyan na released during 2000s na babagayan ng DRL na yan. Hehe.

    Kung walang pera pambili ng foglights, huwag na rin magsettle sa cheaper alternative na DRL. Ang gawin ay itabi ang pera pambili ng DRL at magtipid para makaipon ng pandagdag para foglights na.

    IMO, go for fog lamps, ipon ng konti and get a good brand. Dont settle for cheap fog lamps at maiinis kalang sa output niya

    sa ibang kotse, namamatay ang DRL 'pag naka-handbrake.
