Fantastic. Seriously smart.

If Volvo saw that then that could be their response to the "Audi look".

trust me mate i will, its just one thing, if you read through the write up on how to do it they say its easy, its just the wiring up that i might have trouble with, i dont have a clue how to do it, plus by the looks of the pic that i posted im guessing it will be linked to the side lights

just one thing ive noticed about my car, if i have the lights on the bottom setting 0 on the switch when the sun is out they seem to be the same as if i put them to the top setting to make my full beams work, i was under the impression the lights were ment to near enough turn off for the drl's or am i wrong, can someone put me straight lol many thanks

Your DRL's are on full time unless you put your switch on sidelight setting (middle position), yours being a phase two model you can turn off the lights by, I think, pulling the main beam switch towards you and turning the light switch to the "o" position then release the high beam stalk. How to turn your DRL's off is posted on these forums somewhere. I imagine lowering the car whilst under warranty would very likely void your warranty, I should ask the garage or read the small print.
