Here is how it looks with DRL set to turn signals:

Looks good, how did you get that to work?

Reason I ask, slightly on topic, I have my XB signature lights wired to switch and when they're off the turn signal will hyperflash after a few seconds and stop working completely. Wonder if you can just have the amber without the white. I came from halogen though an it looks like you started with LED

You like these over the stock led setup?
Far better than the reflector LEDs, but the Limited/Longhorn are still better than these. I previously owned a '20 Longhorn, so I have used both. My original plan was to do a Limited/Longhorn front end swap, but the deal on these lights was too good to pass up. These are a good alternative at the right price.

Well, I had LEDs from the factory. So I did not have to wire anything extra. However, I am sure there is a way to get them working properly. I had a 22 Jeep Gladiator and I added some aftermarket headlights with signature lighting. I was able to determine the signature lighting circuit in the harness and wired them just like OEM. Then I just had to enable the feature in the BCM. If we know the connector number we could easily look this up.

I am an engineer as my occupation, so I am used to reverse engineering to solve problems.

Also, I bet if you disable the debugging setting for the turn signals, or set them to LED, it would stop them from getting disabled.

Nicely done! I like the slim low-profile look of your bracket design. Very similar look to my CLA brackets by GODZ, but these are slimmer and offer more of a sleek appearance.
I debated on getting the GODZ MFG just could not fork up that money for a bent piece of metal I felt I could do myself. They are nice though and one thing I like about the GODZ is the zip tie tie down that comes built into them but I may drill a hole and add that to mine as well.

Agreed. You definitely could drill a hole and throw a zip tie through them. GODZ is pricey, but their stuff is excellent quality. At the same time, I’m all for making something on my own when I have the means to do it. Anybody can buy fancy aftermarket parts and accessories. It takes skill to create your own, and to me that’s way more rewarding. 👍🏼

Looking at your profile picture looks like you don't live in AZ,
Any AZ filks --- do you know of a touchless carwash in the Chandler/Tempe/Gilbert area?
Kelley Car Wash- Chandler off Riggs & McQueen, 2 of them, they do good enough job.
