LED Daylight Running Lights

Not after chaving the car up but I run around most of the time with my lights on as I seem to attrack those who clearly haven't read the highway code. Saying that even with my lights on I still get chumps pulling out infront of me. Hay ho.
So a set of DRL's that are always on would help, but only if the suit the car. So has anyone found any at all?

The photos of those that I have seen are not in keeping with the car...

the S6 units can be retro fit into the lower bumper for the OEM look

Yes but you see, this splits opinion - because it's NOT OEM at all...
I think it makes the car less desirable IMHO.

If I had a car with DRL I'd be trying to figure out a way to turn it off. I feel sorry for the bikers - one less thing to make them stand out now.

Don't see how they will help if your not being seen with your lights on now mate

Fair point but as that rather large veg shop keeps telling us, "Every Little Helps"
It seems that most are like me and want to keep the car looking as it should, which is why I was after opinions. Maybe I'll just run around with the main beam on instead, cos surely people will see me coming with 100watts blasting out in there direction.

My LED sidelights are quite bright. You could try those. I posted a pic recently.

Already have a set of those, they do help. I shall have a hunt online to see what there is and go from there. I suspect however I'll not find any that look the part.
