You only have to disable the DRLs if the bulbs the DRLs use run at partial brightness during the day.

Also, the way they hook up depends on what you bought. If its a plug & play, hook the input side of the ballasts to the harness, then the output side of the ballasts to the leads from the bulbs.

I would highly recommend installing a relay wiring kit along with them because sometimes amperage draw may be too great and burn the factory wiring harness.
