For those who performed an LED upgrade, which have you found to work with DRLs so you don't have to disable them in vehicle settings? Thanks in advance.

I have the Hikari’s and they work fine for me. I think some of the complaints are due the LEDs being bright even while running as DRLs. I think this is a trade off of using the more efficient LEDs. I think ford uses a PWM signal to reduce the voltage to the halogens for DRLs. It is the same bulb that is used for the low beams. Whenever the LEDs are attached. It doesn’t drag down the voltage as much due to the reduced current flow. Also, the LEDs are brighter at a given voltage.
