Is it possible to have the DRL's go on with the side lights? I was always led to believe that once the sidelights are on the DRL's turn off the broucher shows them both on

The seven LEDs go off when side lamps are one, the rest of the light stays illuminated.

In the broucher pictures they are both on  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

DRLs



Sidelights



(J77, hope you don't mind me using pictures of your car)

No problem.

Here's a better on of the sidelights



The cars in the brochure are running with the DRLs on. To me the sidelights should be the DRLs and the DRLs should be the sidelights as they are more visible. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Thanks guys really appreciate the photos but my initial question hasn't been answered  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

Possibly through some dealer software. But I doubt it 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

They look so much better on sidelights.
Have to agree lr have got it the wrong way round.
Love the blue freelander gotta be the best looking colour.

LR Nut, my understanding is:

Lights off = DRL + sig strip
Sidelights on = sig strip (acts as the sidelight) plus rear lights, etc
Mainlights on = dip/main beam plus sig strip/rear lights
Autolights = lights off mode or mainlights mode depending on light conditions.

So it is possible to have sig or sig plus DRL depending on what setting you put the lights on.

If your question is can you have the sidelights on (ie front and rear illumination) plus the DRL, I don't think so given the current configuration.

Hope that helps.

Busy posting... ladies watching Strictly... then follows the X factor.....  2016 BMW X3 30d SE in red
MY2013 SD4 XS Firenze Red, 19" 10 spoke contrast paint wheels, Signature Strips, Grand Black Lacquer trim, Cold Climate Pack - gone!
2007 TD4 S Stornoway Grey - gone!

As said above.

Normal driving you get the front signature and 7 LED DRL's
Side lights is just signature strip and rear lights
Dipped beam is headlights and signature strip. The 7 LEDs turn off.

The Brochure indeed shows both on. But that's showing normal day time running, not side lights on their own.

When indicating, the LEDs turn off but the signature strip stays on. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Getting confused Mav can I have the DRL's on along with the sidelights? MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

If you want just the sidelights on it will be the signature outline.

Switch all the lights off and the signature strip and 7 LEDs will come on at all times

You can't have the 7 LEDs light up when you switch on the sidelights unless the dealer can change the software.

Those that don't have signature lights I assume the 7 LEDs are the sidelights. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Remember that sidelights are effectively parking lights so DRLs would need to be much brighter to be effective in daylight.
