Daytime Running Lights

TacoZ · 01-06-2009, 01:10 AM

I remember reading somewhere on here that the 370Z came with LED Daytime Running Lights. Does anybody have a picture of this or can point out where on the headlights the LEDs are located?

this will be a Canadian and europ option don't think it will be and american option.

Why do Americans always get the shaft when it comes to options? Why don't they just put it in there? They always eventually put it in two or three model years later. Is it so they can add another line to their "What's New for Model Year 20XX?"

There's another reason for me to hold off for the 2nd or 3rd year model...

You don't want dtrl, they look yellow. If they were leds it would look white.

shumby · 01-06-2009, 02:05 AM

ya they do look yellow but that is why you change them out to LED's

bossman · 01-06-2009, 02:07 AM

the LED is located just inside the HID.. it would be sweet if anyone had any close up shots..

So does the American car have DRLs? I personally hate them and would be thrilled if they didn't come with them. My IS350 had a menu the tech could go in to and turn them on or off which is a cool way to do it.

I know on the infiniti's that if you bought the car in the states there were no daytime running lights. Cuz a few guys bought them and then shipped them to canada and they had to wire ther DRL's them selves.

No DRL's but there is an auto on option, not sure if it's standard or comes with touring.

DRLs are ugly. If they were activated, people would be going to the dealer to have them turned off.

why aren't the lights blue for this car (xenon)? they always were and i thought they were gonna stay that way but every shot ive seen them on they've been boring old yellow

TacoZ · 01-07-2009, 01:33 AM

All a matter of opinions just as with the spoiler and colors. I personally like them. I don't like the rear wiper though.
