Kia Stinger DRL Modification!

- Installing the brand new DRL lights to my Kia Stinger! One of the easier DIY installs so I was eager to get my hands on these :)
Purchase Here: www.k8stingers...
For GT & GT1 cars wiring set up: www.ck71stinger...
For anyone doing this installation, There is absolutely NO need to get new connectors or add wires. The CK71 Stinger DRL's comes with all connectors required for this install and the wire length is more than sufficient to properly install the DRL's.
Source: I am one of the creators of the CK71 Stinger DRL's.
Rob Silva question - do the stock DRLs dim when headlights are turned on (on my Hyundai the DRLs are brighter when headlights are off, and when headlights are turned on they dim, I guess to not dazzle oncoming drivers )? And do these aftermarket ones do the same?
@@AndreiVassiliev Yes to both questions. The factory DRLs do dim when the headlights turn ON, the CK71 DRLs can be installed so that they dim when the headlights turn ON as well, however we have found that dimming the CK71 DRLs provides little to no difference and 97% of customers have installed the CK71 without the dimmer option.
Rob Silva great! I would just want them to match functionally, to be as stock as possible :) looking at getting a stinger in the near future, and already dreaming up mod ideas
Correct. We just did it to have more room to play wasn't necessary
Rob Silva hey! Do this CK71 can be done on GT1?? Thanks!
For anyone doing ONLY the DRLs, go through the wheel well. It’s so much easier than removing the bumper/headlights. Great video and very useful for big mouths or intercooler swap!
Yessir!
Been a while, nice to see another video of that beautiful Stinger.
It has been. Got into a new home that made things slow down during that transition, plus paying this car off and getting a C8 and potentially a third car so I am preserving money while still finding ways to make content for you all as often as possible. Open to suggestions :)
Oh wow.. these lights look very very awesome
Sincerely so happy with them! It's a great buy
I just got a 2020 stinger GT2 after researching the car for about 8 months so I know basically all the mods I’m going to do. I’ve done a few simple things already like change badges and things like that but this mod here in all honesty is what sold me on finally pulling the trigger on the stinger. Ima lights guy and this is just an incredible look on and already incredible looking car. I’m gonna have my detailer help me do this as soon as this covid19 stuff settles down!
How it should have been form factory. Love it! I wonder if they will trickle down to Australia. Would be cool to see one driving around here with that upgrade.
Vexon only reason they didn’t I could see is they just wanted the whole space to be only for air pass-through. I am shocked they didn’t at least add fog lights somewhere though.
Wishing it was from factory too! Maybe a future model
So damn happy you made a stinger video
Ahhhh I know! Happy to be back!
The lights look great.
Ya they do! thanks!
I installed mine without removing the front bumper molding. You have to do it from underneath removing the carbon fiber sheeting and turning the steering wheel from one side to the other. All done in about an hour.
I really want to see your car again dude its really nice
Summer events :)
What summer events are you going to
@@Slowmazda Unsure I know there is something mid/early May but other than that it's all random and just whatever I hear about
Make sure you coat the wires for corrosion. Nice work.👍🏼
Yessir it's all covered :)
@@VividVisual with what??
Always enjoy the time and effort you put into your videos. Great job!
Thank you brother! always enjoy producing content for you guys!
...for those who have a Premium 2.0L, or even the other models of Kia Stinger, HAM MEDIA has just released his own easy-to-watch and easy-to-follow step-by-step complete video of installing these already assembled CK71 units , using the Diode Dynamics wiring and DRL's, in full daylight in his own garage...going step-by-step..starting with removing the bumper, while showing how to remove all the different bolts, screws and push pins, and how easy it is to finally hook up the DRL's to your headlamps and turn signal wiring. These lights come already attached to the new set of original plastic factory oval pieces that will easily snap back in place, replacing your already present OEM original black plastic oval vent pieces, and come with the wiring harness and Diode Dynamics controller...you will need at least 6 wire taps to connect the basic 3 wires on each side.
Great addition, it changes the look of the Kia Stinger. (The addition is like giving blue color contact lenses to a beautiful model with dark color eyes, it will change her face a lot) I have a few questions please. 1)- If I add similar kits to my Kia, will the original assembly lights blink same as the ones in your video? 2)- I truly don't want the original daytime lights, and I want to install new daytime lights working with the manufacturer wiring or working with independent wiring. Can be possible to cut off the original wire for daytime lights and transfer it to new ones or, just cut off the wire and install new daytime lights controlled in a new circuit? 3)- What will happen if I just disconnect/cut off the LED strips daytime lights wire alone, will the turn signal and emergency features still work? how far the electrical system will be affected? I won't mind at all about the car warranty on the cut off lights, but my concern is if by cutting the daytime light wire may also affect the other features and/or the headlights assembly. If cutting the daytime light wire will cause solely a warning sign on the dashboard, then I won't mind at all to keep it that way for years, I just don't like at all the current daytime lights in my Kia, I hate them. Your advice based on your knowledge will be greatly appreciated. I'm stylizing my car from bumper to bumper.
Great video! What happens to the CK71s when you turn the "DRL off" on the headlight stalk on the steering column? I want install these to pass Canada's federal standards to keep my DRLs on all the time. Thank you.
These would look dope with a yellow film over them to give them a yellow jdm look 😮💨
Maybe show us how to do a powder coat rims like that for an upcoming video? They looked really nice.
Let me see if I can make that happen!
Hey bro! How can I put for my car as well, after watched your video 3 weeks ago I ordered them and got the product but I don’t have any expertise with installation. I live in Chicago. Do you know any places so that I can go and fix them pls!
I have a 2019 Stinger GT 1. I was wondering when you put your mods on, does that effect the warranty?
Those look awesome... Is there a way to shut them off? Do you have to add a switch to be able to turn them off?
Looks Perfect 👌🏻
Did you have issues installing the legato hood? Saw where 1st gen had fitment issues. Lookin at the v2 but just not as sexy as the 1st gen IMO
Looks awesome better than toyota corolla. Kia should see all this video to get some future idea. Like always intresting videos. i will get my GTS Next year and will do some modification too awesome. Tysm 4 all videos.
I like it reminds me of the camero zl1
Yeaaaaaaa now that you say it haha
I would like to change my low beams, similar process? Seems like allot of work for something that is usually a quick swap
I like it..... very nice.
Veryyyy niceeeee
That white VR4 😍😍
The lights look like tiger's canine teeth :) Cool
That's epic!
Kia should totally sponser you, let alone showcase your work.
150% :)
Wow
Love it?
Nice haven’t seen you in a min can’t wait to you get the c8 so we can mod together
Let's go! You in IL though? I get mine in June
What area of Illinois are you located, I think I might want you guys to install these in my Stinger!!
I would do this but seems like a pain to wire. Do I have to take the bumper off as well? Seems like it with any way I take to install this
I mentioned in the video 3 ways to install it, one of them being the wheel well
Finally ur car has an Instagram, gonna go follow now !
Lol I knowwwww much needed!
Are they working with daytime only or they work at night.
Both day and night
What color wires did you tap into on the drivers side on your GT2? My drivers side wires are different to my passenger side
I need ur advise plz.
I bought the daylights for my kia stinger 3.3 2019.
The ones I got was sold on ebay, imported from S.korea, I didn't get them from the US.
Gave my car to garage, supposed to be a professional one.
After installing them, I got warning on my dashboard for light dynamics, when I turn my steering, the lights won't turn with it.
Even tho I got those daylights removed becuz the right side turn signal light didn't work out. !
I am confused, what would u do if u were in my place?
Did elegant aurmor clear wrap your car yet for protection ?... if so..do they repair any chipped paint before wrapping it ?
I ddi not have the clear bra the car I probably should have but they do offer paint correction and ceramic coatings
Hi, is it possible to make lights on the side of the car. Stop or turn signal. Haven't seen that on any Kia Stinger yet
Wow this is looks good
Thank bro :D
Hello looks really good, would do it with me too unfortunately it is illegal with us in Switzerland. Greetings from Switzerland
I heard! So unfortunate!
what color is your stinger?
Looks amazing. How much time and money for install?
My buddy did it for free. Took maybe an hour or less
Unfortunately I don’t have anyone. I wonder what the dealership would charge?
@@royzeus9969 A lot. Try to make a Facebook post first to see if there are any mechanics out there that would help!
Thank you. I will give it a try. I will also reach out to the “stealership” and see what they say. Smh
@@royzeus9969 Yea man it's unfortunate. I never used them cause they were crazy with their prices. Also there are a ton of DIY videos if you take your time you can save hundreds or even thousands on install.
Looks sick but 400? Way too steep for a couple lights
Do you know if you can put the headlights that come on the GT1 & 2 to the GT Line?
Bottom lights came out sick btw!
Have you done the follow up comparison video yet?
Wen are u installing the body kit bro
After the C8 lol.. Body kit is 20k, I need to pay off this car (40k left) and get into my new car before I can move forward with the kit. You don't want a wide body ideally to be your only ride.
Wow now that looks trick great job there:)
Thanks for watching :) Always!
Nice job
Hey thanks for watching !
🔥so clean
And when those lights die out... Good luck. 2017 Honda Accord don't last that long. Hope that hefty price comes with a year warranty at least. But the accord takes 5 minutes to replace with only 2 hands lol
Could you say that it’s a doable project for a diy project??
Absolutely
Damn dope bro pretty simple
What BOV are you rocking? Is it oem?
HKS!
Did you lose the 7 year warranty after modifying your car?
I was wondering that, some manufactures avoid it completely some only avoid what you messed with, in this case the wiring for the lights and lights them selves.
No and it's a 10 year warranty
@@UnderWarranty Still in tact
Wait how is it still intact even with all the other performance modifications? Just curious
@@bluecrimson6841 Dealerships never said anything about it. They say they love my mods that I've done to the car. Then they tell me if anything major goes wrong just put parts back to stock so we can fix it under warranty. They said they can't deny warranty right away they would have to say a certain mod caused the issue but it's better to be safe and keep my OEM parts
Hello I have a couple of questions. First one is the I wanted to put an actebuster in the car it says is save for turbos. I have a 2018 gt2 stinger black with red interior.
What model is this ? GT2? Awd ?
Correct!
Do you know if they have them for g70??
Don't think so, someone from the community hooked us up
What color are the mustang wheels? Or how are they done?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the watch!
Can this fit on a Kia stinger gt line 2020 turbo 2.0 I already order them
Where can I find your front splitter? I have been looking for one like that everywhere
Same! Did you ever find it?
What does he do for a living ???
Очень круто!!!!
Thank you brother!
Any warranty concerns? Can you forward me purchase info.
NO sir, nothing to worry about here. www.k8stingerstore.com/products/ck71-drl
That’s good to know...👍🏾
those are some nice wheels though :)
I'm slightly confused....why did they need to use a broom to prop up the hood?
I have no hood struts. I think I threw them away on accident. They were too powerful for the CF hood
VW Golf 7.5k dynamic headlights is that you? It's not 2018, you are late
what?
wow !! beautiful~~ 그런데 한국에서는 저렇게 LED 달면 불법 ㅠㅠ
Beat name?
Sounds like Thor's daily driver
Definite daily driver
They are bit overpriced on the link you provide. Like 3 times overpriced actually :):):) But anyway they look great.
I'm on my 3rd set of these and they all leaked. Great concept but poor design. I've resorted to making my own with custom poured lenses and they won't leak like the original crap. Extremely overpriced for lights that can't stand up to water ingress.
T taps ugh...solder!
What the hell is going on with your hair?!
Hair is on point
Modifying an automatic car is a big waste of money.
🤣 you realize 95% of cars are automatics including 100% of all modern day supercars
@@VividVisual yeah I do realise that. Just stating my opinion. I'd only modify a manual car. Besides, here in Australia we have more manuals.
@@garoarabian3017 what is your reason behind the opinion? A lot of aftermarket prices on certain cars would actually increase it value
@@VividVisual I don't see any value in automatic cars. Just what my eyes see. Don't get me wrong, after owning manual cars for 10years, I decided to try a mk6 Golf R with DSG. thought the paddles would be fun but I thought wrong. So I then splurged $5.5k AUD on a stage 2 APR and thought that might change my mind but after a couple weeks the car was mostly in auto and continued to dislike it so I sold it. Total ownership duration 9months. Now I've owned a 2010 Audi a3 sportback 6sp manual for 2yrs albeit much less power but much more fun. I lost money on the Golf R. I noticed the manuals were fetching more. Now my manual Audi is also either holding it's value or appreciating since it was the last series with manual here in AUS.
@@garoarabian3017 well like I said it depends a lot on the car. Golf Rs aren't that great of cars lol no matter what you out into it. The value will be lost. Now compare a golf R automatic to the stinger and you have a whole different type of perspective on the way it drives. Just like your audi would never compare to a manual porsche. Experience is different depending on which car your choosing to play with but shouldn't ever set the tone for all automatic based off a Golf R experience. You need to get you in some better valued automatics to see the difference. And if you've never been in a dual clutch then you need to really revamp how you look at it after getting some better experiences
