I would, that switch looks great and doesn't look like some bodgy DIY.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

You should probably wire it with a relay for good lights to ensure your not pulling a lot of current through it.

Yes, feeling MUCH better now
Not sure how a relay works... yes, I should get an electrician to do this. I'll just fit the lights and then leave all the wiring up to him/her.
Okibi - great minds think alike ;)
Slim - nw mate, I understand that some people don't have time to read the whole thread but I want an OEM look and yes I am getting halo rings / angel eyes...

Re: Adding an extra light switch
I am with Slim and nitro. If you are buying leds they draw virtually no power. A variety of quality switches are available at low cost- I have a vehicle with 2 rocker switches ( 1 for driving lamps and the other for an electric brake) and they are small and unobstrusive. Money is always a player. I am only guessing that angel eyes are leds- perhaps not. DRL's are not supposed to be switched off manually. You can buy quality lamps like Philips Narva Hella - the Daylight 4 as an example is around $210 ( set) and you do not have to add any extras- ie complete ready to go. I thought that was expensive.

Re: Adding an extra light switch
Fair enough mate.
I guess I'll just wait for the product to land first and see the switch that they've included as part of the package.
The idea of being able to look completely stock by using the UK switch still appeals though.
I'll need to find someone who knows what to do with wiring first though. Any ideas? =)
