Video: Integrated white/amber DRL installation (hidden in turn signals)

[Wild Turkey]

Thanks to @centerpunch for this awesome DRL solution, finding the ignition-on fuse in the front fuse box to allow easier wiring of DRL.

This video shows installation of LED DRL integrated into the front turn signals. The use of amber/white switchback bulbs allow white DRL with amber turn signals, once the amber filter is removed from the lens assembly. The video is DRAFT for now, suggestions welcome:

This particular switchback install includes 4 important features:

1. The white DRL stay off independently for 2 seconds after each amber blink, for maximal contrast to see the signal during the day. This is much better than the add-on ribbon LED DRL's that make it very difficult to see the front signals (that drive me crazy on NSX drives) I want people to see my signal in their rear-view when I pull out to pass.
2. An integrated resistor increases the current during signal operation, avoiding hyper-flash or having to change the OEM turn signal relay.
3. Avoids the monster Canadian market DRL's that block the AC inlets. (Also NLA.)
4. As @DRIFTER and the late GoldNSX noted, removing the orange filter also improves the look of the vehicle while parked, as the amber filter is no longer partially visible:

Removing Orange Lense Inside Blinker

Does anyone how to or has anyone removed the orange lense inside the front blinker? I thought it was just an orange bulb and was going to replace it with a silver bulb that blinks orange for a cleaner look, but found the blinker has actually got a orange lense inside.

Does anybody know who to take the front signal lenses apart?

Going to change that orange look into white.

Best DRL solution - looks OEM - easy under-hood connection, converts turn signals to white DRL / amber turn

WARNING: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU OR YOUR CAR EXPLODE. IF YOU DON'T HAVE EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WITH AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS, PLEASE STOP READING NOW. I'm a believer in DRLs, especially on silver cars that can blend in with the background on overcast days. I searched here and found...

Side note, Motorcycle style front and rear DRL is also fairly easy to effect:

Solved: Motorcycle style Front & Rear Daytime Running lights - "Super DRL's"?

Done: See post 8. It seems everything on the road is getting bigger and we are getting harder to see. My search has turned up empty except a couple of threads on how many red/black wires you need to interrupt with switches to get the clock, dash, radio, and climate control to high intensity...
