Hate it when you are right rustynutz I checked the road traffic act of W.A. and the simplified driver guide book too. They removed it, I am certain it used to be there many years ago. My aussie licence was issued in '92 and it was one of the questions in the theory exam I had to take.
Quote from: constipated on October 13, 2012, 10:06:08I'm suspecting the Ebay source of these DRLs is not as good as the factory originals.For what its worth, the items are 100% OEM parts. From the very same factory as the i30s with factory fitted DRL's

Based on your description it would seem possible that they are OEM.The only other thing I can suggest is if you can get to the wiring at the relay, remove the wiring plug from the relay, then CAREFULLY jump directly from your battery to the lights, bypassing all switches, with the engine running. If you can, make up a correctly wired temporary plug and simple + & - to go to the battery.If the lights are brighter, then it's the relay or switch circuit. If not then
they had holographic Hyundai stickers on it. the box was labelled with KIA and Hyundai all over it. It is an ebay store for factory items.I also had some communication with the factory trying to source some other parts, Their service was good and I am 100% satisfied these are the exact same item that would be fitted to one out of the factory. The build quality is identical to the originals, down to having the same little lumps and features on all the clips, fog light height adjustment mechanism, plugs.there is one of 3) things causing dullnes1) they are meant to be dull (seems unlikely), or I'm imagining it being dull2) the circuitry in the relay unit is not delivering 12V to the LED's (or limiting current, but LED's draw so little in the first place)3) factory Hyundai circuitry to the unit itself is >12V (seems unlikely)I've popped a multimeter on mine, and I am definately sending 12V to the relay, I am not really jumping with excitement to take the front bumper off again to check the voltage at the plug of the DRL'sYou'll notice on their website http://www.jayongmall.net/product.php?id_product=2753 they sell quite a few items labelled as OEM (and quite a few that aren't, obviously) including the reversing camera, led taillights, the HID version of the headlights (which are over $500 each). If these were counterfeit items, it would be way too much effort for the amount of sales they'd see.

If you reach under the car, directly below the fog light, you can actually reach up and undo the plug to test the voltage

Could be a silly question but what is a one-click connector? I tried connecting the white wire to the orange wire, it doesn't turn off when head lights are on? I'm connecting it like a T way, without cutting any of the wire off, just cut a little piece of the orange rubber and stuck the white wire on. Am i doing sonething wrong?Edit: Btw, are these too blue? They suppose to be white.. according to seller
What the..? Those are super blue...
Is it a trick of the camera? I though they were supposed to dim with the headlights on
It's still legal right? Lol, might need to look for alternative if not.
Where do we ho to order parts from Hyundai? Do we head down to our local dealer? Would they allow us to order parts that aren't meant for our i30?
