The DRL bulbs are shared with the high beams, so you can't really replace them with LEDs, but you can add some separate LEDs for DRLs. I added angel eye rings of LEDs around my fog light housings and use them as DRLs.

thanks, but can you tell me how did you connect the angel eys rings of LEDS around the fog light? and what fuse do you connecting to? I saw the fuse with label DRL, is this the one you using? how is your LED work, it will turn on when the car is READY and it off when you turn off the car?

it is wired with a relay - when the lights go ON (automatic or manual) - the DRL go OFF and vice versa. They start with ignition.
Attached with black silicone - so it can be removed without a trace.
I would prefer the North American DRL (high beam at lower voltage), but EU specs are different.
Still if anyone has a solution - please share it!
here are some photos:

From this fuse box:
I get two wires:
First one is signal from the hybrid system - meaning + on ignition.
Second one is from the low beam headlights - both wires go to a relay, like this:
So when the the ignition is on - the DRL are also ON, but if the low beam starts - the signal from them via the relay turns off the DRL.

Sorry for the late reply, but had to take some photos for you. Here they are:

There is a thick black wire that comes out of the side of that fuse box, can you tell me where it goes?
I am finishing up a rebuild on the front end after a collision and cannot see where that wire is supposed to go to.
I attached a picture to show where it is.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks, Jay.
