Most people here want to disable the DTRLs! The simplest way would be to
hook up a relay that is triggered when you turn on the van. This should
cost about $5 and about 2 hours of work if you take your time. In the
newer Golfs and Jettas it is a function of the headlight switch. I suppose
I should look in the Bentley manual to see how it is done.
