Chevrolet vehicles have two different daytime running light systems. There is a separate bulb assembly and there is the use of the high beams at a lower setting. Depending on the type of Chevrolet vehicle you own, accessing either assembly may require going through the wheel well or simply opening the hood. Check your owner's manual to discover what type of system your vehicle has. Older Chevy vehicles have the separate assembly, whereas newer models tend to use the high beam headlights at a lower setting.
