taxiguy ◊ 2009-10-24 05:23	But 1990 Caprices would have DRL, since it was mandated in Canada for that year.

tonkatracker ◊ 2009-10-26 04:33	Daytime Running Lamp - required on all vehicles made or imported after January 1, 1990 in Canada Door mounted seatbelts are often thought of as unsafe (except in the US apparently) same deal with the Honda Civic/CRX certain years (89-91) had door mounted seatbelts in the US but not anywhere else. -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 04:44:00
Snookie ◊ 2009-10-26 04:46	Daytime Running Lamp? What is that and what does it do?
Neptune ◊ 2009-10-26 05:01	Just as its name implies ... the headlamps run during the daylight (while the vehicle's engine is on) for added safety. -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 05:02:46
tonkatracker ◊ 2009-10-26 05:01	A daytime running lamp is an automotive lighting device on the front of a roadgoing motor vehicle, installed in pairs, automatically switched on when the vehicle is moving forward, emitting light to increase the conspicuity of the vehicle during daylight conditions. as noted above it is required in Canada, a lot of cars in the US have this feature also, including all 1996 and up GM vehicles, most Late model Toyotas. Honda, Volkswagen, Volvo, Suzuki and Subaru have also added DRLs to USDM vehicles. DRLS can be reduced intensity highbeam headlamps, like on the 96-up Cavalier, reduced intensity low beam headlights, Like on the 96-up Astro, front parking lamps like on the 03-up Express, they can also be independent of other lights like 99-07 Silverados and in Canada(but not in the US) they can be your foglamps like on 91-94 Sunbird GTs. -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 05:12:29

I thought they started in 1995 model year I have seen 1995 Chevrolet Beretta with DRL fitted in...
tonkatracker ◊ 2009-10-26 18:52	If you have seen a 1995 Beretta with DRLs it was either aftermarket or a Canadian spec Beretta. The first American car to get DRLs as standard equipment was the 1995 Corsica, other GM cars including the Beretta followed suit in 1996. -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 18:54:28
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-27 01:27	Oh, that was what I was looking at the Chevrolet Corsica. That is how my memory can become mud as times goes on
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-27 02:28	Here is the description of what GM has done at USA market as shown at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daytime_running_lamp#United_States . -- Last edit: 2009-10-27 02:28:35
tonkatracker ◊ 2009-10-27 02:36	rjluna2 I am not sure why you posted that as it is exactly what I have already said.
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-27 02:42	I was merely adding the source of the information that I found.
tonkatracker ◊ 2009-10-27 02:43	ah gotcha
jettalover ◊ 2009-10-27 07:47	My '05 gen.5 Jetta has reduced intensity low beam headlamp DRLs. DRLs were/are a MOPAR dealer accessory part for the '94 Intrepid I used to have. -- Last edit: 2009-10-27 07:48:54
