Hey guys, I've just joined your club...just ordered my 09' Vibe today!! I'm about to order 9006 Low beam HID kit, and I was wondering if the DRL is the low beam bulb?? cause if it is I have to get something else to regulate the voltage, rite? Thanks a lot!!

the 09's have the DRL on the high beams.

Yup it runs off the high beams so no need to get the harness

You can get a kit for $70 on Ebay, I got mine there, granted they were for a Matrix, but the 05 Matrix uses 9006 low beam and fog lamps. When a car has a 9006 low beam they will have a separate 9005 high beam lamp as well. Typically a DRL system will run off of those at a lower wattage. No harness, it will plug right in, just be sure you mount the ballasts in a good spot. Take your time with the install as well. I Also disconnected my DRL system and the headlight sesnsor that turns them on at night automatically. I can't stand either. Oh and my $70 kit has been running strong for at least 6 months now with no issues.

LOL he has new lights, but no car to put them on. Reverse processing is awesome!
