day time running lights vs parking lights

jsut wanna know which is more popular...
does it make any difference or is it solely based on perferences?

if i wired it to day time running lights, how long do u think the angel eyes can last before blowing out?

Angel Eyes last forever, probably longer then you will own your car. I have mine hooked up to the ECU Accessories tap (basically key in position 2 and anything past it, ie: engine on) as well as the interior footwell tap which comes on when I unlock, open doors, or turn on interior lights.

Most people run it this way and have no problems at all, I'd say do both

The DDEs themselves will last forever, but the ballasts won't. Ballasts are cheap and easy to replace though.
Mine are wired like BimmerZealot.

so how long can i expect the ballasts to last? and where can i get them? is it part of the life time warranty?

also.....which do u think looks better....parking lights with the angel eyes...
or just day time running lights....

Ballasts should be part of warranty, though the length will vary with the retailer. I lost one first ballast 2 weeks ago after almost 6 months of use.

DDEs as daytime running lights >>>> parking lights. Parking lights look silly imo
