LS/LT trims w/out the RS package:

No emblems in the grill or rear deck, just the bowties.
Headlights are standard halogen lighting.
Fog lights standard on LT models and up. Fog lights operated by push-button in the center of the headlight "dial"
Daytime Running Lights are the headlights at a lower voltage

LT models with the RS package:

Red RS Emblem added in driver-side of front grille and passenger's side of trunk lid
Fog lights act as the Daytime Running Lights
Headlights are Projection HID with Halos
Fog lights cannot be turned on while headlights are on.
Headlight dial does NOT have a push-button for the fog lights

SS model without RS package:

White SS emblem added in driver-side of front grille and passenger's side of trunk lid
Headlights are standard halogen lighting.
Fog lights operated by push-button in the center of the headlight "dial"
Daytime Running Lights are are the headlights at a lower voltage

SS models with the RS package:

Red SS Emblem added in driver-side of front grille and passenger's side of trunk lid
Fog lights act as the Daytime Running Lights
Headlights are Projection HID with Halos
Fog lights cannot be turned on while headlights are on.
Headlight dial does NOT have a push-button for the fog lights


This is a good summation except I would simply state that the RS cars do not have fog lights, they have DRL's instead of saying "fog lights act as" or "fog lights cannot be turned on..".

As DDustiNN eluded to, all Canadian cars with the RS package can run the DRL's AND the halos together. Canadian RS cars MUST have either the DRL's or the headlights on at all times (no choice). Canadian RS cars will turn on the headlights and turn off the DRL's automatically at dusk, regardless of whether your light switch is set to off or automatic.
