Are you driving a foreign model? I've read on the board that Canadian cars come standard with DRLs.

Are these relays the factory methodology to get DRLs in the foreign cars?

Ya, I Know, I was wondering the same thing. I have an 06 coupe, and all the Lexus', BMW's etc. I see have fogs that are always on and my $40,000.00 G dosnt??? Im in the U.S.? but the only time my Fogs go on is when my HID's go on ???
The way I was talking about would use a few relays to turn on your fogs when the car was on. One would turn on the fogs and the others would switch it off when the parking brake is on. Any car audio shop could do it for you.

Are the fogs the same expensive bulbs that the main lamps are?
I think I can get DRLs easily by putting a piece of black felt over the light sensor on the dash. It won't be visible, it won't mess anything up.

The fogs are not HID; they are just H4.
