have thought of pulling the DRL fuse and turning the headlights on as DRL's.
That's even more wasteful (and less safety-effective) than the cheap and nasty high beam DRLs Honda stuck you with. It would be a retrograde step.
using a "turn signal DRL module" is an interesting option, never heard of one.
You've certainly seen turn signal DRLs in action, though; many vehicles are equipped that way from the factory.
it would be like turning on the parking lights?
No. Parking lamps are not effective or legal as DRLs. We're talking about steady-burning operation of the front
turn signals (bright mode, not their dim parking mode). Click the link I provided; it contains videos.
from a safety stand point what is best?
Probably functionally-dedicated white LED DRLs that are SAE-, ECE-, and/or DOT-compliant, made by a reputable maker. Such as one of these setups:
kit,
kit,
kit,
kit,
kit,
kit.
But any of those requires adding new lights to your vehicle because you can't go back in time and retroactively design them in an integrated manner into the front end/front lamps of your existing car, which means not only an installation hassle but also potentially sub-optimal location (such as lower than optimal). Other than that route, probably the turn signal DRL would be best.
i have read that some DRL's can cause oncoming traffic to mis judge distance
Yes, if they're too close together...such as the high beams on some vehicles that have very little separation between the left and right.
and u make it sound as if possibly amber is a better color than white?
There is some decent-quality evidence suggesting that.
