Default Code rear light bar on during day time driving?

Hi all,

Just wondering if there are any shops out there that could turn on/code the rear light bar on a 21' Macan during day time driving or if you have any experience with getting this done on any car. Called around and some shops don't do it (even the modification ones). Based in surrounding Indianapolis area for work and Philadelphia area so any shops that could get it done would be great recommendations.

or hey, you could just physically turn your headlights on and voila - rear light bar is illuminated.

The rear bar should also turn on when the parking lights are on but you lose the main DRLs in that mode.

Yeah it does. That's why I'm wondering if a shop could have it activated during day time driving.

Low beams on a Macan during daytime driving feels like driving with high beams on
