In fact, once we have the electrical diagram and found the DRL function feed to low beam headlights, we should be able to easily cut the feed and disable the headlights as part of DRLs.
Never thought about this but this's a great idea though! Mazda engineers if you see this and you can simply and cheaply add a wire from front rain sensor to rear wiper. This has to be better than a fixed intermittent rear wiper!I'm willing to pay someone $$$ to do this mod for me! And if he's kind enough to also run a wire from the rain sensor module to the rear wiper (so it's in sync with the windshield wipers) he'll be generously tipped.

I Always light the LED position lamp. When the engine is ON, only the LED position lamp lights up,
Meters and monitors will not dim, and the tail lamp will not light up.
Yep that's why I feel that kit sounds like a DRL module for any non-DRL equipped CX-5.If this is correct translation, this means when car is on and you select drive and move, led DRL activates and nothing else. Exactly how it should work.

BTW, the translation of product description is from Google, although I can read some Japanese.

I'm not sure. I'll know more in 10-17 days.(scratch)
I believe it'd be difficult for Mazda to change it as it involves a physical wiring change, not just software update. And like someone had said, this's such a minor issue for them and they don't really care!Could be possible that for 2018+MY's in the US, the "independent" DRL option may be a refresh update.
Hey guys. So I had bought a 2017 Mazda 3GT with the premium package (only package available in stick shift) last month.
I too was baffled that why did Mazda ruin the drl system by turning on the low beam also along with their signature lighting. Tried looking for answers and came across this thread.
So this feature of low beams coming on with the halos is looking like a standard thing Mazda is imposing on their line up of vehicles for North America.
As much as I hate the headlights coming on with drl's; I am just gonna have to live with them.
Yes it is. I have the same 2.5 with stick.

Yes, it works.This likely won't help as I believe it turns off both the DRLs and halos. And I'm not even sure if it will work on the 17 CX-5. This procedure works for several Mazda models produced over the past few years.

While testing these things, I noticed another "aesthetic annoyance" when DRLs are enabled: If you stop but leave the transmission in gear (stop sign/light, etc.), and move the switch from anything else to OFF, or from On to Auto during daylight, the DRLs (halos and headlights) go off. When you start moving again, they turn on.
I'll take your word for it; I've never had DRL's before this vehicle. I guess the advantage is that it gives you a way to force the DRL's to turn off while you're not moving without having to shift into park. Not sure how often I would do that though.This is normal operation for DRL's
