help, mysterious wire

[amnash]

so removing everything in my engine bay one thing at a time, i found this wire going from:

the green wire of the gauge cluster boost gauge--



going to the red wire of my head lights



i removed it for now, but can anyone tell me why an earth the guy before me did this?? is it some sort of little mod everyone does or something? not sure what it could possibly do

Most likly day time running lights

...only when you boost

[amnash]

...only when you boost

what? lol

Most likly day time running lights

i was thinking that was the only possibility, just dont see how the boost gauge is involved.. unless its just a power source?
i havnt looked up how to set day time running lights yet but there must be a better way then that. it looks like Sh*t the way buddy had it

more than likely just for DRLs, the previous owner probably chose the wire for the boost gauge to splice into to act as the remote wire for the headlights to turn on

nice, thanks everyone. definatly gonna find a different route for DRL's
