Is there a way to activate the daytime running lights...or do only certain e60s have DRLs? I have a 2006.

Also, I currently have regular headlights and would like to get some xenons...I currently do not have the funds to do a retrofit, but are there light bulbs out there I can get that will emanate the bright white look without looking cheap (a la ricer honda)? Thanks for any info.

Your dealer has to activate the DRLs.
You can purchase white bulbs from some people here. Do a search and I'm sure you will find some.

only ur dealer can activate/deactivate the DRLs. I have HID retrofit kits for sale. The blue coated so called "xenon" bulbs will never look the same. Send me a PM if you can or an email at brabusw209amg@gmail.com and I'll help you out.

BTW, ppl go to the dealers to deactivate DRLs. IMO, leave it and u can also put some LED angel bulbs there.

+1!
I wish Canadian cars can have a way of deactivating DRLs, so I can run AE's as DRL's.
