your thread title needs to be more informative, though. not everyone knows where to find those, and it's a rule anyway to make your title reflect the content.

They're not "driving" lights, they're 5W parking lights no better than the ones you already have. If you want daytime running lights that are actually useful (not just JDM ****), then follow Aaron's link. Far more effective for a fraction of the price.

I think one switch just flips the headlights up, and the other flips them up + turns the lights on.

^ya, but why? I was wondering why there were two switches too. Wouldn't you just need one to turn them on/raise them? But on raises/turns one and one just raises it.

The manual headlight retractor switch is so that you can raise the headlights for cleaning and maintenance, and so they can be left up in freezing conditions to prevent motors burning out from trying to raise frozen headlights.
