In Canada, we have to use DRL. I haven't had mine activated in 3-4 years now. Doesn't work well with HIDs. I really don't miss them in any form. It's kind of nice not having them. I like cruising at dusk with dust my corners from time to time. That doesn't work with DRL.
Yeah, save yourself $90 and get something cool for your Ex. Lots of great ideas on the forum. Welcome from the province north and a little east from Boise.
