Installing Day Time running LED lights help

sorry I know this question was asked before so maybe I need a refresher on this.

I am finally getting the S63 body kit...how did you install your DRL's without the flickering?

I don't want to do resistors as it gets hot.

I also heard that there are relays on ebay but phat did the install and it didn't work.

Please reply back on what works for you on the install.

Thanks guys...

I just tapped into the side marker lights...no daytime running but they come on when the parking lights or head lights come on in auto...no flickering at all..

I wish these lights stayed at full brightness at night.
