    Hey all,

    trying to add DRL's to my wife's 2015 prerunner she brought with her from the states to Canada. I was considering just buying some fog lights and using a fuse tap to have them turn on all the time with the ignition. Alternatively, I was considering using a Canadian style turn signal switch. The Canadian style signal switch has no option for DRL, but leaves them on when the engine starts. Is there a wiring diagram available that i can compare the Canadian Tacoma to the American one? Any further input would be much appreciated.

    2015 files. I think Canadian Law has it that DRL should be ON always with no way of turning it off with a switch. (off at engine off)
    A solution would be, if the Taco does have DRL already, is to de-pin the DRL ground so DRL inside turn signal/drl relay is "cancelled". Then have the parking (taillight) circuit at the light switch removed and placed to a relay that would provide ground to activate via a fused ign source.
    The downside would be that the Dash n Radio would always be dim.

    This is the BECU (backside) i.e. Cab fuse/relay ECU.
