Good day.
I would like to know how to connect DRL lights properly.most guys here in my country link them up with the parks.but the purpose for them is to come on with the engine, and while engine is on ,they should go off when you switch the lights on.is there any relays involve here?
Thanks in advance

Do it once,do it right - This means no short cuts. You never get paid twice for having to do the job twice because it wasn't done right the first time.

If engine means running, try using the alternator's charge light circuit [search for UIBI (battery isolators; electric fuel pump control, etc)]. Otherwise use IGN +12V
To disable with lights on, the (UIBI) relay's GND (85) could be to a headlight's switched +12V via a diode (line to headlight).
