Are you fitting extra lights or using existing lights?

These ones Rich

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ring-Automot...running+lights

They were recommended on here a little while back. They sell them in Halfords but they're a tenner dearer there but at least people can have a look at them there. They come with an AA battery pack installed and a 'Try Me' button on the front of the pack. If you do 'Try Me', do not look directly at them. They are very bright and you will be unable to see properly for a few minutes!

Look good, glad they are proper ones and not some cheapo ebay guff that fail in minutes.

Looking forward to the pictures don't forget to take some of how you fitted them too.

All those poor people coming towards you suffering the same bright light in the name of safety

My dipped beams become day-time lights when I switch them on during the day. Works just as good

I agree not all DRL lights are attractive but sensible ones fitted with consideration, I think mine are same as op has purchased and I had them placed in bottom grille hopefully discreet and yet still affective

I've considered DRLs but I haven't found a place where I think think they would look good on the front of a mk1 ZT-T?
