Here is what I found No coding is necessary to install.

Product description:
The MINI MINI LED daytime running lights offers a completely newly developed daytime running lights as accessories that perfectly integrated with optics, design and functionality of the MINI family. The full LED lamp replaces the Serien-Positionslichter/Nebelscheinwerfer and also offers a daytime running light function for all MINI vehicles of R55 to R61 series.

Advantages:
• Light cubed: The MINI LED daytime running lights daytime running lights, position lights, and fog lamps in one. Thus, with only one headlight three different lighting functions represented.
• The MINI LED daytime running lights has a unique and innovative design. It is the world's first daytime running lights in a circular shape (homogeneous ring without dot optics) with a particularly uniform light output.
• Innovative LED technology is extremely energy efficient. It saves up to 80% energy compared to the low beam switched on.
• Bright white and high-quality: The bright white light of the lamp goes particularly well with the light color of the xenon headlight. There were only high quality materials used (aluminum die casting, clear lens without optics).
• The LED lights speak the new MINI design language and provide a perfect integration into the MINI overall appearance dar. Through the perfect fit, the light looks as if it were part of the basic equipment.
• Very simple: By taking over the mounting points in the space of the old fog lamp MINI LED daytime running perfectly. Complex changes such as sawing or drilling accounts for the vehicle.
• The distinctive design of the lights with MINI lettering on the crossbar in spotlight acts as an eye-catcher even when switched off.
• Safety Europe: Daytime running light increases driving safety and simplifies the drive through Europe, as daytime running lights in many European countries is already mandatory.
• Day and night unique: The MINI daytime running lights make the MINI even more individual and higher quality. It not only changes the appearance at day but also at night and make your MINI as yet distinctive.

Functionality:
- The MINI LED daytime running light three different functions: daytime running lights, position lights, and fog lights. The daytime running lights is represented by a full circle fiber optic, light position by using the upper third of the circle. The front fog lamp shines in LED reflector technology as a full circle, which is separated by a ridge.
- The light is mounted in the existing space of the front fog lamp and uses the existing mounting points.
- The intelligent control unit DRL is generated even though the vehicle has no daytime running lights as standard.
- The new daytime running light function is activated by a simple reversal setting in the on-board computer: The previous setting will disable daytime running lights and thus activates the LED daytime running lights on the vehicle ignition.
- Make connections existing signal lines are used without any additional coding.

Material:
- Housing made of die-cast aluminum
- Lens made of scratch-resistant polycarbonate (PC)

Scope of delivery:
- MINI 2 LED daytime running lights
- Control module with wiring harness
- Hardware for mounting

Technical information:
- Can be installed in the installation space of the fog lamp.
- No coding required.
- Daytime running light function represented by homogeneous circular optic body, which is irradiated with 15 LEDs.
- Position light function represented by quarter-circular optical body, which is irradiated with 5 LEDs.

I am a little confused with the settings on the onboard computer, according to the literature it allows it even if the car does not have the settings, however my car has it, and you can enable or disable it through the Onboard computer, wonder if this will conflict with the module.

The installation guide says to disable the DRL in the computer. These are basically wired to operate like always-on running lights.
