hid & drl wont turn off
I just installed my hid in my RA and when I have the light position on "OFF" my hid stay on. I was wondering if there's a way to turn the hid off when I put the switch to "OFF"

Well, this is my solution...
*drum roll*
Just unplug your low beam fuses. If you need lights, you have your high beams but I don't suggest doing that because that means you're going to be driving around pissing people off with your high beams on their rear view mirrors.
Just some food for thought. Cheers!

I will try to take a look at the wiring diagrams this week. Hopefully it might be as easy as removing a fuse but you might need to do some soldering.

I would give it a tryI'm assuming that DRLs are on the 06 ralliarts because my car doesn't have it. I wouldn't recommend bending the pins if in the future you want to bend them back again. They break easily.

My suggestion is DO NOT bend/solder/tinker with any of the pins/wiring/etc. You wouldn't want to damage a whole relay/circuit just because you don't want DRLs...
Cheers, my friend!

Solution 1 (easiest):
If I were to fix DRLs, I would just run a switch from the engine compartment relay box. The switch would be wired in-line with the low-beam fuse to the headlight.
You could use the switch to turn on and off the low beams.
Solution 2 (bit harder):
Get a relay to turn on when you switch on the low-beams from the column lever. Connect the actuating pole of the relay in-line with the low-beam fuse to the headlights. This will allow you to use the column lever instead of having a second switch.
I wish there was a simpler solution such as removing a fuse, but hey, I may have missed something.
