    When I select parking lights on the DRLs come on as well. I want to keep the DRL feature but don't want them on when I put the parking lights on. Is this possible to do?

    On my '20, I was able to disable the DRL through the menu/settings feature on the head unit.

    After disabling them, the parking lights work independently, as they should from the turn indicator switch.

    Thanks for letting me know! I ran downstairs to try it out and it disables them entirely. Even with the stalk switch set to DRL they don't turn on. Talk about a strange feature! I guess I can't have my cake and eat it too lol

    NP! Turning the low beams on would be similar to DRLs.

    I’d like to find a way to run the parking lights and OEM fogs. On my last Jeep, I bought an AEV ProCal and it had multiple features...one of which allowed you to select from a variety of ‘DRL’ options, including OEM fog lights. Is there something similar for the 4Runner?
