nice car...looks pretty good particularly for being in colorado, although there is a silver coupe w/ 3400 and 237k here for sale with almost no rust from colby which isn't too far away from colorado (I tried to test drive it to know if it was an option for my friends but the tranny was close to as bad as it gets)...where are you at in colorado, I am going to school in Hays which is only a couple hours to the border

I'm in aurora Colorado.
And thanks everyone I take care of it because it my second baby I also have a 99 Chevy Camaro ss supercharger 610hp that's my real baby :) just trying to make my alero sporty and cool looking I just need Hids and a new windshield and maybe a cold air but I'm not sure if that will help get better gas miles so give your opitans guys. And I have the 2.4l with a auto tranny but I wish I could get the 2.2 ecotech in there I like that more so much better

Is it hard
sleepyalero
10-31-2012, 04:34 PM
its very easy all you do is pop out the fuse from under the hood, cut or tape off 1 pin.. (i cut mine) and reinstall the fuse. then no more DRLs.

I am not sure for the most part why you would want to disable them...if you every now any time i need them off i either do as sleepy, or if i am leaving i put the parking brake on the first notch before i start it and leave the driveway, drop it down and they turn on...wouldn't drive any distance like this but at least on mine the first notch has no resistance anyways, i havent tried to see if you can put it in park and shut them completely off with the parking brake without shutting the car off though...this will tell you how to do it though

you gotta turn off car with ebrake up, then restart for the lights to be off.
03glgold
10-31-2012, 11:49 PM
i thought so...like i said though good for getting out of the driveway without shining in windows, not good for much else as it annoys the crap out of you and isn't the best for the e-brake system

Good luck with that...there was a thread on here where someone posted a video of an alero with the headlights you can control (over in europe)....i think it was falloutboy or w/e his name is. He's from germany but those are RARE....it even had a little dial where the fog light switch/dimmer dial is. Pretty neat. I might do some looking into that.

noooo....i'm talking about something TOTALLY different. Maybe he isn't talking about what i think he is. There was a video of an alero with a switch that actually ADJUSTS the headlights. You can aim them down or up....it's neat. But VERY rare. I can't find anything on google.

I see what you are saying...i do believe that all the euro spec lights are set up for it the hard part to find is the controller...sorry for correcting you I didn't think about what you were referring to, but you are correct about it being fallout
