Haha, I did this recently for a friend's 911 turbo. (as you know TechArt charges big money for the DRL conversion).
Car's been sold to Norway, no more pics :/
On the stock 911 DRL is yellow. I made it white with massively bright LEDs for show. Can be turned on with headlights or use as DRL. Blink along with turn signals, then return to always on position.
What I really want to say is:
Whoever wants to attempt it, I'd make sure you know exactly how much power you'll be consuming (when the engine is on and off) because you're going to want to use really really bright LEDs and along with that, you'll be sucking a lot of juice, which means it will be taxing the battery from a source that is not designed to endure the extra burden. On the stock stock 911 bars, it's about 12W. You may be able to make it work but I'd think about building this right and for longevity, not just making it light up and move on. If you're interested, then let's collaborate since I've already done this

I've been looking at the same thing and found some other options for LED's. Check out these links. I just don't have many specifics on the lights except size.
