they look a little worse than the previous Techart LEDs. Why don't they just convert the standard LED indicators to DRLs without warning lights?

Is it that difficult?

Not a bad look. Agree that the fully integrated into the stock light would be less busy and more stock...not that these aren't worth considering. So how do they wire up? Can a layman do the job or is it for an electrician? Are there any fault code issues to contend with? How many hours are involved?

If someone comes up with day time running lights in the original turn signings that would be a clean OE look.
