Enable daytime running lights on a Fabia vRS

Hi,

I was wondering if this is possible on a 2003 Fabia vRS? Ive seen info on how to do it on later VW's but nothing related to a Fabia/Polo/Ibiza. It would be great if i could have my sidelights/dash lit up permantly as i always turn them on when driving. Thanks!

Re: Enable daytime running lights on a Fabia vRS

you can enable or dis-enable them with vag com, believe they come under daytime running lights which basically turns the lights on (front and back) whenever you start the car up.

I did this on a (54 reg?) A4, the DRL's used a separate (21w?) bulb in the headlight, they could however be coded for just front or front and rear DRL's.
