Plugging into Wildtrak LED DRLs

Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to plug into the LED DRLs of a Wildtrak? I'm planning to add raptor style grille lights and I'd like them to turn on when parking lights are on.

Should be minimal current draw, just do it.

Worst case circuit shuts down with too much current draw so then you will need to relay them instead then clear the circuit DTC to reset.

Hi Stewart, thanks for the reply. Do you know where I would connect in the headlight assembly to get power for grille lights? This is for the MY2019 ranger, apologies if that wasn't clear in my post.

Could you not just use the DRL power?

Use a test light and look for the appropriate wire going into the right hand headlight as it is easier to get to. Tap in there or see if the headlight patch harness from lightforce has all the wires in them and wire to that instead.
