Hi, i have 2013 1.2 LT Spark,

I thought it should came with Day Running Lights, but it didn't, is there any way to turn the DRL on ?

Thanks, Adi.

You need to contact a local dealer in Israel, for that information. The U.S. models are all equipped with DRL's.

And the USA DRL function is all done in one of the computers so they may be able to simply turn that function on for you.

I have these, installed them myself and connected it to the Park Lights....

That looks pretty good in your grill, wish we had that style grill over in the USA.

Hey Greg_E, thank you ....although you are lucky when it comes to parts in the USA.

Our 2013 Model in South Africa does NOT have the touchscreen audio system, or any of the added upgrades like audio controls on the steering wheel.

Also trying to do engine mods is a nightmare because nobody stocks any parts....

ValorHeart its really easy, all you have to do is give it power. I wanted them to work with my park lights so i just tapped into my park lights, it it does not come on the 1st time just switch cables around as they are +/-. If you want them on all the time you can tap into your fuse box or just use an electrial tester to find a power cable thats on as soon as you turn your ingition, and tap into that. No need to pay for software updates or anything like that.

I've changed all the bulbs as well, main driving lights are Osram Night Breakers(H4) and all other lights are super bright LED lights.

Interior light has been changed to a LED light as well.

I have also fitted 2 x Targar Competition Street Series subs running at 1000w RMS each with a 5000w Monoblock XTC Amp, let me know if you plan on doing the audio system i can guide you.....

Thanks

Thanks Sudeshen, that sounds very cool, how did the alternator stood with the power of your amp? even when i turn the lights on my stock spark i hear that the engine rpm gets a bit lower because of the alternator load

Not sure how you connected yours, but there is no change on my Sparky except for the lights dipping when I crank the volume up .

Just upgraded the battery and that got sorted out. Im using a Willards battery. Which contry are you in?

Let me know if you want pics of the install...
