I just bought a 2016 nismo and I'm looking to do this mod but I'm not even going to attempt doing it myself would just feel more comfortable paying someone that knows what there doing to do it for me. Was wondering what would be considered an acceptable quote for a job like this?

I've been looking for a way to shut the DRL's off during the day or just have control of them for that matter....for my safety they say...:wtf: I wonder if this mod plus a switch would do the trick???

Alright so I'm doing this today and I don't want to cut the wires. Are the little white prongs where the cable is in the connector where I need to insert a flat head to get them out? It looks like or do I need to take off a section of the white connector to get to where I can release the two wires? http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...8de1c9b516.jpg

All done! The hardest part was getting the wires out of the main connector! http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...ba644dfb8f.jpg

My bad, saw your posts late. Yeah, that was the hardest part. But worth it if you don't want to cut wires. :tiphat:

Just did it this morning too! Love it. :driving:

is there only ONE fuse in the IPDM responsible for BOTH running lights? or do the drivers side and passenger side have individual fuses?

if there are two fuses.. I may have blown one.

right now only my drivers side running lights come on

Awesome just did this! No cutting but I soldered wires in case I wanted to revert.
