So title. What's the easiest way to get a 2015 sedans DRLs US model to work exactly like the 2016 US models?

Edit: would it be possible to program the computer to simply send 5.3 volts to the LEDs in DRL mode? This wouldn’t make them bright but would at least run the LEDs during DRL mode. Would this be reprogramming the BCM or IPGM?

Sorry I know it's a year later, but if you are still having trouble take a little peaksy weaksy at led switchbacks. Little buggers are an led bulb capable of being any color for your normal DRL, but switch to amber when signaling a turn and then switch back to the other color it was previously I.E. blue, red, white, pink, etc. If this isn't what you are wanting to do then something I did that works is tapped wires to my accent lights and jumped them into the circuit wiring responsible for the DRL using a tap as well. So everything remains the same in a sense with the addition that my accent lights will always be on unless the light setting is switched to off. Otherwise in auto light setting the DRL is now amber/turn signal+side marker/accent strip LEDs, side marker light setting is just the side marker and accent strip LEDs and then manual headlight setting is all 3 again. Hope this helps.
