Ok. so I wanted to first clarify what version of polo do i have? - Its a face-lifted version (2014 + facelift). It came with Cruise control, Foldable and adjustable side mirrors, without auto dimming mirror and without rain sensing wipers.
However, I was able to install OEM auto-dimming mirror and Rain Sensor and it works flawlessly. It seems to me that VW guys just wanted to make use of existing over stocked windshields which came with manual/flip mirror brackets installed (despite BCM supporting rain sensor)
.
Pictures below - (these were done in my DIY project. right from removing existing bracket from windshield and installing a RLS bracket.
.. i'm very proud of this mod as it looks just OEM)
Coming back to DRLs - this is another mod that I'm attempting and want it to look OEM or at least want to achieve OEM behavior if not the OEM look. I'm still not sure if my car is 6R or 6C. but as per @iichel comment seems like DRL will only work via fuse box on Indian Polo.

Hi. If the headlights are non-OEM and come with their own harness (e.g. from AliExpress), I don't think you will be able to change the way the DRLs work. It is the limitation of such units. We will of course wait for Fernando and Michel to give their views.
I am still hoping for someone to help me with the installation. I wont blame AliExpress as they want to make things plug and play but if I know how a DRL connection will work via BCM, I can tweak the headlight wirings.
