DRL Question

I have a question about the DRL's on the face lifted W204. I have the Lighting Package and I like the little accent "C's" inside the headlight and I was wondering if there was any possible way to have those be on during the day in addition to the LED bars on the lower bumper? I know that if you turn the headlight switch to the left from Auto the little C's come on, but it turns off the LED bar light on the lower bumper and turns on the parking lights as well. Thanks.

I don't think there is a way. I don't have the lighting package, but If I manually turn on my headlights, my DRLs are always off.

It is interesting because when I unlock the car at night, the "surround lighting" includes the C accent lights as well as the LED bar lights, so somewhere in the system those two on at the same time is programmed.

Bump. Any updates to this? It would be quite nice to have this setup while driving. I have the same issue as OP. WHen you turn the switch to the left it turns on the "C" accent lights but the DRLs turn off.

Works only with factory ILS HID, the DRL have code 240 instead of 236.
Maybe you dealer can reprogram them, together with some SCN codes you will need
