Tnx for the link!
I just wired one end to my parking lights so I can run it just with the parking lights on. No converter needed as they are 12 volt. I will try and get some more pics up.

How about this for $0. I bought a used ( certified) 2011 F150 lariat 5.0 liter, crew cab that did not have daylight running lights. My dealer told me that Ford did not have a way to add them. An after marker store wanted $150 but would have to order the parts. I decided to place a black bottle cap over the light sensor on the dash, and set the light switch to auto. All lights now stay on all the time. Even better, in the auto position, I can program the time for the lights to go off when the ignition is turned off which is something you can't do if the lights are in the "on" position. I programmed it for 10 seconds. So now I have daylight running lights that turn off 10 second after I turn off the ignition. Total cost $0

You can also just go to the dealer and have them hook up the computer and turn on the DRL. It's all in the computer it just needs to be turned on using their special computer that hooks up to the truck.
