I've been trying to get info on how VLand's wiring looks like, but have come up empty on any real diagrams that would shed light on it. Just a bunch of crappy YouTube videos. Without knowing how they actually power everything inside those headlights, it's going to be tough for me to figure it out without having one in my hands I can test with.

Since the boomerangs were not built to be DRLs at any point, and the factory intention was never to have them be DRLs on the stock headlights either, it's wouldn't be surprising if they wired it up in a way that wouldn't work in a conventional way with the Always-On module. They may have done a 'short-cut' to ease the manufacture of the lights while making them work with both BRZs as well as FRSs that interferes with the Always-On module.

I'm still convinced it's still as simple as moving the Always-On wire to the proper headlight wire, but again without a unit to test on and a bench to work with, there's too many question marks. I also wouldn't know what side effects it would cause, but I'm sure that based on what aftermarket headlights do to BRZs as it is, there would be something that would come up.

Welcome to the world of aftermarket headlights on BRZ's. It's full of surprises.
