i Was hoping to get a bit longer life span out of the reflectors by turning the drl 60% headlight bulb off.

OK, gotcha. Yep, the POS0 (halo only) was my ultimate goal but I gave up after realising its too much hassle to run ignition 12V to inside of the lamp. Plus (and I will really highlight it) unless you mount the halos on TOP of the plastic beziel, not behind it, it wont serve its purpose during bright daylight.

good luck with retro, make sure to share pics and your thoughts!
