oem daytime running lights

OEM running lights are enabled by the ECU. Most countries in the world require them except for the US. Aftermarket parts from Nissan bolt to the front and require wiring.

They don't HAVE to be controlled by the ECU, and I doubt they would be in this case.

You could wire them to a relay with key-on 12v... meaning they would automatically come on when you turn the key on.

You could also wire the relay to a switch, and turn it on and off when you'd like.
