the navi dont come with the option

No in the normal menu or in the advance menu is not possible to disable if you want.

For the advance options in navi press and hold set + navi and look around.

Hey guys, I noticed a lot of traffic on our site from EvolutionM.net so I just wanted to check out what the traffic was all about.

About tapping the parking light to click the relay over - we just did an install on a new Dodge Ram today and we tapped the parking light as well. We always do this if there are DRL's on the vehicle since all you need is a simple 12v source for the relay to click over. I think the parking light on the Lancer is a 5 watt 194 bulb and that will be enough to click over the relay.

We've had hundreds of satisfied customers on Scionlife.com and if there's enough demand, we can try getting the same offer extended here.

Thanks all.

Clifford

mobilehid has the best deal on hid kits and they are freakin durable too, I had a kit installed on my old nissan truck from another company called visionX, and that thing had problems with the ballast not being able to take road shock from the roads I frequent, and would always flicker or turn off.

but the kits from this guy is holding strong, with no flickering on the same road that my other kit had problems with.

The DRL system is 9v, which means it's completely incompatible with HID systems. HID ballasts require 12v to fire. With less, you'll either get a strobe or never on effect.

Yes, because the voltage is the same regardless of the bulb.

Props to MobileHid.com but if you are looking for a lower price alternative http://www.aandrmotorsport.com/gener...y-harness.html similar product $100 cheaper.

Just an other way to get HIDs.

Well I went to my dealer I know the GM and a few techs there, one hooked up the MUT III Programer to my car and found the DRL function and lowared the tab to say DRLS off Check Okay, but we he went to set it it would not allow it it came up with an Error that said, THIS FUNCTION CAN NOT BE PERFORMED, So I was like what the heck so our ECU is hard to hack, best way is to slpice the wires, I guess.
