I'm still hoping someone with the stock Daytime Running Lights will do one of these conversions and show me how. I can't figure it out.

It appears that you non-DRL folks are wiring low beam wires to the projector bulb and splitting off the high beam power to the cutoff shield solenoid. This was verified by a vendor; this gives the equivalent of 4 high beams. Good so far.

Here's the clanker: the stock DRL uses the low beams, so the DRL supplies reduced voltage to the lows in DRL mode, which would be an issue for the projector. Vendor: The reduced DRL voltage generally isn't compatible with aftermarket HIDs, but with some advanced configuring you should be able to set it up.

It's the "advanced configuring" that I'm having trouble with, so please chime in if you've made it work.
