Default You need to do a hard wire direct to the lights from a switched source.

Switched only in the sense that it is switched on and off with the ignition.

Should not be too difficult to do.

I think he needs running lights in the headlamp, not the fogs.

Default I don't mind swapping my 2004 Cdn spec A6 allroad light switch with you

I idle my car a lot waiting for the kids and prefer to have the option of turning off my exterior lights.

I'm in Vancouver BC, if we know for sure DRL is in the light switch, we can swap.
