Default Daytime Running Lights

Is there a way to bypass the system so you can keep the running lights on all the time including night time when your regular headlights are on.

I am no expert, but as far as I know, your daytime running lighs are simply the bright lights dimmed to 50%? I am not quite sure on this, but feel free to correct me.

My running lights are not the head lights.

I believe that it is an "either/or" thing with most state laws about so many lights pointing forward at night.
What are you trying to accomplish?

Oh, you are probably right about the daytime running lights. I have the NBS 2007 and there is no seperate running lights on it. it was the years before that had it. If I am right, isnt that the lights that at least one of them always seems to be burnt out?

Yeah that is the light im talking about... It is right next to the turn signal and i just replaced them today with LED's. I wanted to see if i could turn them on at night because they are automatically on during the day and i can't figure out how to turn them on at night. If you know please reply thank you.

I am not sure, not that tech savvy. I am sure someone else on here will know.

by turning them couter clockwise while driving yeilds the same result. If i not driving for more than 5 minutes i usually always turn them off by the time i reach the end of my street.

i dont know how to get the driving lights and headlights on at the same time. In CT the law is you can only have 4 lights on, so if you do get it to work and have fog lights on your F-ed in CT if a cop is ticket happy.
