Yea sorry typo, I meant 4114 like 95escahoe said not 7114 lol. look in your owners manual and it will list the same. it is because of the high voltage. it's like having your brake light on constantly and it's not designed for that so it burns out fast. the 4114 is designed to be only lit up from the higher voltage, notice how your drl is brighter than your parking lights but the turn signal when flashing is the same brightness.I never knew that. I know Austin is big into live music. Going to SXSW has been on my bucket list for years now.
@05Single I wasn't aware of that. I was always under the impression the reason the drls burned out so quickly was because they were subject to really high voltage spikes up to 15V and that's what caused them to go out.

I think you can reverse the wires on the bulb to trick it to use 3157s , but I've never tried.
