We'll I'm about to purchase this drl fire amazon they are the Philips brand, here's the full name-
Philips 12824WLEDX1 DayLight 8 High Powered Luxeon LED Daytime Running Light
I asked a shop around here and they said they will charge $65-160 just for installation....
I haven't really done any work on my car but it's a 2010 nissan maxima sport and all iv done is change the interior lights to LEDS, also plati dipped my rims.
My question is for that wire that I have to connect to the headlight wire, were can I find the wire?
Do I have to remove the headlight assembly?
Any install these and can help/ give tips?
Thanks guys!

Not sure if you solved your question yet, but I just happen to do this mod last night. Instead of using the Philips Daylight 8 though, I bought the
a then used the Philips Daylight 8 Module so the lights would dim when the headlights turned on, instead of turning off completely.
I chose the Philips Daylight 4 over the 8 because I did not want the DRL's to look like dots, which the Philips Daylight 8 does, because there are spaces between the LED's. on the Daylight 4, all 4 LEDs use four reflectors, but it looks like one nice big light, versus 8 individual lights for the Daylight 8.
Heres a pic of the wire I tapped into, which was in the fusebox under the hood! It is the Left Low Beam headlight, which was the BLUE wire, and I used a red Posi-Tap to tap into the line. I have included pics.
