Do you want a steady output, or a pulsing one, like the turn signals?
Also, the front turn signals and the DRLs share the same wire (and bulb filament), so you would probably want to get the output
off the rear turn signals.

Should be interesting. Just changing to LEDs can be a problem. What type of load are you talking about? What is the purpose? Have you tested it ?

I believe you could tap into the wires that come out of the steering column, at the same location where you would install a hyperflash relay harness. DIY example:
Full disclosure, I haven't probed these wires myself to know for sure.
