DRL's are different in different markets - what you are calling DRLs, I call high beams.

In fact, I have no DRL of any kind. Indicators are just that (they don't double as "running lights"), the Xenon HID low beam at the outer lamp position run at all times (well, as long as the lights are on) and the inner lamps flash if the stalk is pulled and come on full time when the stalk is pushed (H1 Halogens, I think).

Like upallnight, I can also turn on fog lights with full (high) beam - coded like this from the factory.

Man, does this thing throw some light with all six front lamps running - 2x Xenon HIDs, 2x H1 high beams and 2x H11 fogs.

Plus AEs.

To blktoptrvl - I guess you might be able to change the LCM coding to run the lights pretty much how you like - with the exception of AEs as DRLs, which requires some hard wiring changes. YMMV, as will your local laws!
