Hi, hope someone can help.
Took delivery of our new van a few weeks ago and although we had the dealer fit option of the led DRLs the original ones are still shining yellow above them - spoiling the whole effect.
Talking to one of the technicians at the dealer I understand that all vans now delivered are euro 6 compliant (at least in terms of lights, not yet for emissions). So this means that even though there are aftermarket DRLs fitted it is impossible to turn off the OEM DRLs. So what I have read on some forums and also here about either turning off the OEM DRLs in the ecu or pulling the fuse is no longer an option.
So 2 questions, has anyone had the OEM DRLs turned off on a recently new van by getting it programmed out and as an alternative, what is the spec of the OEM DRL bulb, wattage etc, so that as an I can replace the OEM bulbs with LEDs so they are white not yellow. (Probably the best option in any case, obviously they would have to be canbus compliant.)
Thanks in advance for any advice.
