Looking to Install Switch for DRLs...

I want to have my DRL (daytime running lights) on a switch like my Audi had. I figure I could install an OEM looking switch in one of the blank panels by the VSA button and tie into the wires on the fuse panel. I searched but couldn't find anything. Has anyone ever done this? Thanks in advance.

you just wire it independently with a voltage cut off of 6v's to make it appear as though it runs only 50%.. you wont be using the stock harness.. its equivalent to wiring up some leds on a car.. just wire it independently to a switch. you can google it.

Doesn't pulling the fuse throw a light on the dash? I think that is what happens on the 3G IIRC.

Nice. I hate that the DRLs and high beams are integrated on the 4G. Makes it difficult/(impossible?) to have both nice DRLs and effective high beams.
