Daytime Running Lamps???

Should I have the DRL's activated when I take delivery of my car? I'm having a hard time deciding whether it looks nice with or without them... If I change my mind after-the-fact, the dealer charges me 1/2 hour labor (~$50) to toggle.

I'd get them on, why not. I always drive with my lights on anyway, just a habit.

My buddy got his 330CI ZHP a month ago or so and just left the DRLs on.......he's still thinking about having them shutoff though.

Its personal preference.

I hate DRLs. If it's bright and sunny why drive around with your lights on. I got a 02 Tundra which if you know about Toyota I think their on a safety kick about DRL. I wanted to pull the fuse on them but I haven't had the time. that's part of the reason why I like my beater it has the old fashion you have to turn on the lights to get them to come on.

they're gay, i can't stand that I can't turn off the lights on my wife's 05 corolla....it's like having the automatic seatbelt (the one connected to door and slides when you close the door) should always be the choice of the consumer.

I hate DRL’s.
If I ever buy a car with them on, it will be the first fuse that I pull.

Most people pull out in front of you because they are lousy drivers or they don’t give a damn, not because they didn’t see you.
