I wouldn't consider San Antonio very close to California, but I guess it is closer to it than Ottawa...

I'm pretty sure he was being facetious...

THIS IS NOT TRUE. This would be ideal, and is exactly how I would like them to operate, but they do not work this way in the U.S.

I believe the Canadian cars do this, however, as I believe Hylton said his is like this.

Again, the U.S. cars do not operate this way.

As soon as you click it to the right to turn the halos on, it says on the DIC "Automatic lights off" or something along those lines (don't remember the exact wording). So when you want the HIDs on, you have to manually turn them on, or put it back on "Auto" (turning it to the left).
i remembered there being a conversation about it a while back, so i offered up what i could recall...sorry for the misleading information!

Yes a "slit in the front" that does NOTHING!

I to wonder about their intelligence. Particularly when they make smart @$$ comments while giving WRONG information.

The RS has daytime running lights instead of fog lights. The SS gets a red SS emblem instead of a white SS emblem to indicate it's an RS as well.

I am really sorry because i am sure this is a very stupid question but i would really appreciate a really simple answer i assume the "fog lights" on the camaro are the two small circle lights at the very bottom of the grill. What I was wondering is if i bought a 2SS RS package camaro, if there was a way for my halo and the brighter light in the middle to come on automatically at night, but to not have the "fog lights" come on during the day. I am really just wondering if i can have all the lights come on automatically when it gets dark, except for the "fog lights". I just want to make this clear i would just like to know how to or if there is even a way to just make the lights come on automatically but never use the "fog lights" neither in the day or night.

Also, another question i have was are the halos the normal night time lights, and the other lights in the middle the "bright" lights or the high beams

I am sorry if these are noob questions or if i should have used the search feature but the search feature doesn't seem to work for me, when i say this i mean it never gives me for what i am looking for

Thank you guys

The only way to turn your fogs off is by turning your Halos on, which disables the auto-headlights, so I guess the answer is yes.....and no.

Also, another question i have was are the halos the normal night time lights, and the other lights in the middle the "bright" lights or the high beams Halos are just parking lights, the light in the middle is both the bright and dim, just have someone sit in your car and flip from dim-bright while you watch from in front of the car.

I am sorry if these are noob questions or if i should have used the search feature but the search feature doesn't seem to work for me, when i say this i mean it never gives me for what i am looking for You aren't the only one with this problem, hardly ever works right for me either....

Thank you guys

and.....HOLY REVIVED THREAD, BATMAN! Sorry couldn't resist.

RS is just a fairly benign option package, why would you want a badge for that? Would you put a Cargo Net badge on your car?If it has SS badges, that's more significant. If you don't have an SS, than an RS badge might make sense - but only because of what it might make people think.
