Is it possible to change turn signal to drl?

This is my first post and i'm not trolling. I don't know if this question has been asked before but I have not found it, and I've been lurking these forums for about 7 months now.

I know it's possible to install BRZ headlights in the FRS but that would make it to be having no DRLs and 4 Turn Signals. Is there a way to mod the turn signals on the FRS to DRLs, if I had the BRZ headlights installed?

With wiring changes, really anything is possible. I would strongly recommend that you find wiring diagrams for both the BRZ and FRS to see where the differences are.

There is a lighting section in the Technical Forums that is full of people that have installed DRL in that area with LEDs. They would know best.

Don't forget that the FR-S's DRLs are also the high beams. Changing them to LEDs, while looking sweet, obviously has potential to greatly impact your lighting ability at night.

i don't think that would matter if I switched to BRZ headlights?

Missed that, but you're going to have some fun with wiring. Did you check the forum on lighting yet?
