i think its illegal in Britain to have them on anything other than your main beam (sure spain is different tho), i'm sure a switch could be wired up if you are desperate for that system, got any blanks on your dash?

I hadn't blanks in my dash. Do Your 4 lamps operate on the main beam?
Are your 4 lamps made by BMW?

OEM Driving Lights
In OB, American, the driving lights operate ONLY with the high beams. There is an interior switch which is to the left of the steering wheel, on the dash, just above knee level , under the air vent about 6 inches or so in the blank part of the lower dash.

Its not a toggle, but a push switch about 1 1/2 inches long. What is that in MM's????
