Hi,
I want my Day Time LED lights on (without the back light) but I believe this needs to be done at a dealer, I've found the following information, does anyone know if this is correct? If so I take it I just ask the dealer to set the light to DRL DENMARK, HOLLAND, NORWAY, SWEDEN, FINLAND & POLAND......

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Description and Operation
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) use the full intensity low beam headlamps which are permanently illuminated when the vehicle is being driven. DRL are used in a number of markets and there are two systems to cover these markets.
DRL CANADIAN MARKET
DRL for this market use full intensity low beam headlamps. The side lamps, tail lamps and license plate lamps will be on, but instrument cluster illumination will be off. DRL are active when the following parameters are met:
Parking brake is off on vehicles with manual transmission or PARK is not selected on vehicles with automatic transmission
Ignition switch is in the ignition position (II)
The Central Junction Box (CJB) receives an engine running signal
The lighting control switch is in the off or side lamps position.
• NOTE: If the lighting control switch is moved to the headlamp position, DRL are deactivated and normal side lamp and headlamp functionality is operational.
• NOTE: Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS) (where fitted) is non-functional when the DRL are active.
• NOTE: When DRL are active, the headlamp flash function using the left hand steering column multifunction switch will operate normally. The high beam headlamp function using the left hand steering column stalk switch will be deactivated.
When the parking brake is applied on manual transmission vehicles or the selector lever is in the PARK position on automatic transmission vehicles, DRL are turned off. This is to reduce battery discharge during long periods of engine idling in cold climate conditions. When the parking brake is released or the selector lever is moved from the PARK position, normal DRL functionality is restored.
DRL DENMARK, HOLLAND, NORWAY, SWEDEN, FINLAND & POLAND
DRL for these markets use full intensity low beam headlamps. Side lamps and license plate lamps will be on, but instrument cluster illumination will be off. DRL are active when the following parameters are met:
Ignition switch is in the ignition position (II)
The CJB receives an engine running signal
The lighting control switch is in the off position.
• NOTE: When DRL are active, the headlamp flash function using the left hand steering column multifunction switch will operate normally. The high beam headlamp function using the left hand steering column stalk switch will be deactivated.
If the lighting control switch is moved to the side lamp or headlamp positions, DRL are deactivated and normal side lamp and headlamp functionality is operational.
