Daytime running lights

I've got a new set of lights from Pro Tuning Lab being delivered tomorrow.
HID Xenon + 11-16 Ford F250 / F350 / F450 Superduty CCFL Angel Eye LED Projector Headlights - Chrome
I've been thinking about trying to go with daytime running lights on the halo portion if it's possible. Is there wiring or switches that need to be changed on the truck side of the equation? Anything have to be reflashed at the dealer? If it's too much of a pain or too much money spent at a Ford store, I'll veto the idea and live with it as is.
An inquiry to one of our FTE vendors went unanswered, so I thought I'd check here to see if anyone has attempted this.

You will have to go to a dealer or find someone that can access the BCM (Body control module) to turn on the DRL. Some dealers will do it for free if you convince them it is for safety.
