OEM daytime running lights that I've seen either use the headlights (rare, but the Yaris is an example), highbeams (almost all other cars), or parking/signal lamps (many new GMs IE new corvette). I have never seen foglight based DRLs, as they are probably far less effective at acting as DRLs.

I find that yellow DRLs are more noticeable, yet less blinding than half-powered high beams, and this is the route I intend to go when I do my retro.
Even doing a retrofit, you will need to find a way to get the DRL running, and this is what I've been trying to get help with... it can be the parking light or any other lights, as long as it works, I think once I get the idea, I can hook the circuit to the light that I want it to be DRL?
