DRL Replacement Lights, Need Wiring Help!

I think all it does is either supply power to the DRL relay or it's hooked to the coil side of the DRL relay, you may want to find a wiring diagram, and possibly tap the TFL pin on the swith into an aux relay for your lights.

that was my read on it...seems it would be way too much power to be running through this switch to run the halogens, too, IMHO.

Guess I better update this some:
Returned aftermarket lights, bought euroswitch, now run with fogs + parking lights on instead of DRLs. Much easier!

agreed!! That is the setup I have...well, you don't have angel eyes...but almost my setup...

Actually, what you were trying to do would be very simple to do using a couple of SPDT relays wired correctly. But I see your happy with the results of the euroswitch so all is well!
