EBMCS03, Iceman will be looking for you soon! 
Those fogs are on for a good reason... it was when I first installed the 4700K fogs and I had to check if they worked... that pic is from the DIY Fog install thread.

On some of the newer Audis, the running lights are xenons (at least I think they were DRLs) so I though the E60 would be the same and paid the dealer to turned them on. At that time, I didn't even know I can turn on the angel eyes by themselves. When they were disabled I was going to have them reactivated but after reading this...hell no. I like the angel eyes by themselves...more unique that way.
Thanks for the info guys.

I have been driving in Canada (where DRL is mandatory) for a long time and I don't find the DRL increase the safety factor except for those idiots who forgot to turn on their low beams at night. Sometimes I just wonder how they see the dashboard without even turning on the parking lights, or do they look at their dashboard at all?

That's when I found out they weren't like the Audis Then I replaced them with Silverstars and they were still yellow... oh well, not getting them turned back on anymore.

Yep, I figured the power output to those DRLs were lower than normal, hence the yellowish beam.
