Am I missing something but Is it possible to turn on the led strip lights under the main headlights as daytime running lights?
I am sure I saw a Macan with these lights on permanent in the daytime yesterday.

I though they were on - they are on the Boxster (I think). Now you have me wondering! Must check later!

I have a funny idea that if you flip your headlight switch to the 'side light' position, the LED strip would light up.

There's a 98.7% chance that I'm wrong.

GTK app says - 'Side lights - Number plate light, instrument lighting, side lights switched on, DRL switched off'

Haven't tried on my current GTS but this was how it used to work on my previous SD with xenons (sidelights turn the DLRs off and put the strip / sidelights on)

I am sure the DRL`s were on also.... Maybe they were the side lights in the main headlights then... I will have a play after work to check.
