These are less directional than the shaped beam and might therefore make a very large difference to the brightness of nearby objects outside the shaped beam, e.g. the tunnel walls in the beam shots.


Yes and no. Yes, the DRLs come on. But no, they don't add much. As far as is possible to actually notice, you get a bit more brightness at ~5m. That's pretty much it. I find it a virtually worthless feature, personally.
