In today's video, we go step-by-step with the installation process of the DRL Harness by MX-5 thing's on Kristen's Miata. This is the harness WITHOUT the brightness control, which keeps the running lights the same brightness and matches the output of the headlights nicely.
This is a simple, plug-and-play 10 minute start to finish process with basic tools. Get your DRL harness here: mx5things.com/...

I just installed the DRL harness this morning. I came up with an alternative to the styrofoam removal or cutting. I took an old solder iron, heated it up, pulled the carpet back and tucked it under the clutch peddle, located the bottom nut and used the hot iron to melt a groove thru styrofoam from the top, down to the nut. That took maybe 30 seconds and was way easier than removing the styrofoam and potentially breaking it of using a razor knife to cut away the styrofoam around the nut. The melting styrofoam gave off a little smoke and odor but that all dissipated in a minute or 2. I hope this helps someone with their installation.

For the manual drivers, getting the carpet around the clutch pedal is one of the larger pains around this install

Thanks for the install video! Only thing I would change, is near the end, you mention that the DRLs turn off when the main lights are off. Clarifying the DRLs stay on for normal daytime driving would be useful for viewers.

It looks a lot simpler (and safer) to break the styrofoam. I’d rather not fool with the accelerator assembly. Thanks, Tom

I chose to break the styrofoam as well since the carpet holds it in place as mentioned in the video anyhow

Dude that is hands down the best color I’ve ever seen on an ND Miata ever! Looks absolutely stunning! How did you get it done (for abt how much) and what’s the paint code lol. Or is it a wrap? I wanna get a MX-5 next year, and I’d love to get it done in that color eventually

Great video! Just got my MX5 and using DRL at night was my biggest wish...such cool lights! Kinda terrified to tackle this by myself. I'm a clutz and can only imagine what kind of damage i could inflict on my baby!!! Any idea how much this would cost to get done professionally? Thanks again for a great video!
@DriveMX5
@DriveMX5 3 года назад
Thank you! I imagine it wouldn’t be too expensive as it’s a 15 minute or less job. The harness can only plug in the correct way, so it would be difficult to mess something up!

Is there any more detail (either visually or verbally) about getting to the DRL harness? I tried to get to it yesterday and failed (even though I did get to breaking the styrofoam block out of the way). Thanks for all your vids.

@DriveMX5 2 года назад
Hey Thomas, here is a blog post with some additional photos for getting to it: mx5things.blog/2018/07/25/driving-at-night-with-led-drl/ The box that contains the connector for this harness is behind that styrofoam on the left side (if LHD) and is up higher. There is a cover that must be removed. It's held on by two 10mm nuts. Pull the cover off and then you will see multiple wiring harnesses. The one on the top right is the one to unplug. Then plug in the DRL harness at that location and plug the vehicle's harness into the other end of the DRL harness. I hope this helps!

Any recommendation for a bright LED bulb? Lasfit does not carry the bulb for model GX 2016. Thanks
@DriveMX5
@DriveMX5 Год назад
Edit: I’m not sure. It’s possible that the bulb there on your model is the same as the reverse lights, but I haven’t confirmed that. I would start by figuring out exactly what type of bulb your car uses for that location and search by that bulb type. I hope this helps!

There is no bulb, it’s an all-in-one housing for the LED DRLs. You have to remove the fender liners at the minimum, removing the bumper might be necessary
