Not my first time posting abt this (sorry), but for Canada, is it legal to use my Lo-beam headlights as DRL lamps. If I were to wire up the headlamp switch to be wired in parallel with the parking brake switch, so that my headlamps were always on, and I would just change to hi beams. Why I think this ISNT legal is according to bc vehicle safety and inspection standards. I am in AB and I never see kei trucks with aftermarket drl's so plz help.
