Daytime Running Lights

- I saw a 5th Gen last week that had their fog lights as their DRL's.

- Is there an easy way to make this switch or is it a "wiring" thing?

For non-RS cars this is the way the fog lights work from the factory.

If you've got an RS, I know that somebody on the forum sells a harness that allows you to run the fogs as well as the headlights.

um...you mean for RS cars, the fogs are the DRL's, right? Non-RS cars use their headlights for DRL's.
