Beatsonic Always-On DRL Module

For those of you with the monogram, 10 series, release series FR-S,
and is equipped w/ this module can you help me decide on this merchandise?

1) Does it do harm to your existing headlights and/or reduce the lifespan of your headlights?

2) Does the DRL dim only when the low beams are on? And when the e-brake is disengaged and when the stalk is fully turned off does the DRL still light up as bright as how it comes OEM?

3) This module allows the DRL to come on when your stalk is turned to "auto" and to the "low beam" only correct?

4) The description states the DRL dims to adhere traffic laws, so you certainly do not need any resistors correct?

Thanks,
Lani

the module keepings the DRL running along with the low beam. The DRL isn't as bright as the high beam setting. I'm sure your DRL will burn out faster because its always on compared to turning off when low beams are on.

So which means, if the DRL ever wears out the headlights needs to be replaced?!

At the very least the LEDs within the headlights will need to be replaced. Which means opening the headlights

Hmm...kinda makes me debate.
I definitely like the way it looks, but not sure if I want to take the chance just yet...
