just installed some HID's in my 3rd gen. 4runner

just installed some bohmen HID's in my 3rd gen. 4runner only problem i ran into is that i can no longer use my day lights. they must be deactivated. what a bummers. but the voltage is too low for the day lights to be running at or something that only one side goes on. bummers! just wanted to tell everyone before they install some HID's on their truck. just to let everyone know that bohmen is the same as mcculloch. it was a plug and play type of system.

now the only problem is trying to disable my day lights cause the plug is different from the one in the tech area. anyone could help me out here?

thanks in advance!

What year is your 3rd gen? To disable the DRL it is different on certain years. With the cost of the bulbs, I disabled mine with my HIDs.

I don't know about any mall.

As far as HID. There are several threads on here(search)about where to buy and what to look for.

Here's a couple of sites:

http://www.hid-online.com/hidonline/...t_H4_4100k.htm

http://www.xenonfactory.com/

Also try Ebay...

or you can find him on ebay do a search for seller. "supervtec"

the person i got it from was pete he is a very friendly and helpfull person. also shipped out the kit very fast to me. i live in hawaii and i recieved it in about 3-4 days. so talk to him and he'll hook you up. just tell him james reffered you.

as for the lights i cant believe i was driving without them all this time.
i got the 6000K series. very nice at first it looks a little blue but it has to warm up and then it starts to turn more white with a slight tint of blue in it.
