DRLs on my RX-8
I am trying to make my RX-8's medium beam headlights to work as DRLs (Daytime Running Lights). I'm gonna use OSRAM's Ultra-Life lamps, since they are really durable (but not so bright for night driving). I've come up to this relay: http://www.finishlineperformance.com...cat=338&page=3
which might do the trick, provided I find an electrician to fit it correctly (local Mazda says they have no clue). I've asked finishlineperformance thru their website form, if this relay is the one for me (i.e. it turns the headlights on whenever I start the car), but they didn't reply . Anyone knows what this relay actually does? Thanks.

That is the trunk opener and ignition relay : http://www.jimellismazdaparts.com/sh...roduct=1887678
677403 L11067730 RELAY,N.O.( BLACK 4 PIN )
IGNITION RELAY STARTER CUT RELAY HEAD LAMP RELAY (Required: 003)
Do you happen to know if this can be used the way I want it, or does it do the opposite, that is just cut the lights when the ignition is turned?
Thanks.

You may wish to consider a simpler option, which is to wire the foglight switch in such a way that they can be turned on independantly of the headlights. It's at most an hour's work.

It's likely the best way to go if you have the factory HID's since it keeps the running hours off the $650/each xenons.
