I know the DRL's can be activated buy the dealer by programming the SJB, I had a couple questions about that...

#1. Can the DRL's be programmed to only come on when the headlight switch is in the Auto position? (ie, if its in Off, the DRL's dont come on.)

#2. I live in a state that requires headlights on when using the wipers, and with the switch in the Auto position, its not always dark enough to turn them on. Is there programming available to activate the lights with the wipers? (I think this is a requirement for the Canadian market, so I would think so)

Thanks

Use Rainex and you won't need to use the wipers. Problem solved.:D

I do use rain-x, and I almost always use delay, even in the heaviest rain. Still, state law requires headlight use in the rain. I would like to have the lights come on with the wipers. I haven't seen anyone else talk about this feature, so is it possible on a vehicle built for the US market? As I mentioned previously, I think it is required for Canadian vehicles.

In really light mists it would look like you flashing people when you do a single swipe, but you would be in strict compliance with the law.
