I am going to be doing this mod soon. I ordered up everything but I just had a quick question. What is the new 3 wire socket replacing the factory DRL socket? If so, doesn't the factory socket have 3 wires also??

To my knowledge, the stock socket does not have the third wire which is why you need the new one with 3 wires.

In your pic it looks like 3 wire... but after looking closer, I can see 2 are ground wires.

Also, does the front bumper have to come off to do this?

Thanks!

I was able to remove the headlights without removing the bumper, the key is to loosen the bolt under the bumper that holds the headlight to the frame.

One last question. What will the lights do when the headlights are on? Will the amber lights stay on when the head lights are on like it factory does?

Amber only comes on when using the blinker, other than that they are always on the white color.

Yes this is correct. You can also view my post #72 in case it's easier for you.
