    Sounds reasonable to me, especially if you already have fog lights. (I forget, does your IV come with them?) You might ask WebElectric whether the relay in the DRL-2P can handle the 10A of two fog lamps, possibly saving you having to add another.

    Checked and had to add the relay, as the DRL-2L can only do 21W on each side, not 55W x 2.:(

    I agree - did you upgrade you parking lights yet ?

    If so - how did it come out ?

    I believe you're both correct. It is legal to use the yellow turn signals as DRLs. It is not legal to only use running lights when headlights are mandated due to time of day or inclement weather. Translation: if you need headlights, you need to turn everything on.
