...and they're 80% on my Passat, all lights engage with ignition as Kelly
descibes...just like turning on your headlight switch.  On the side, my
wife and I drove down through most of the western states in early '90
with our Jetta Carat with DRL's.  It was quite funny...about every block
in cities someone would yell at us to turn off our lights or remind us we
had 'em on.  I appreciate them in our climate as Kelly also eluded to and
wish my other cars including the Westy had them.  Next time a charcoal
coloured car emerges out of a heat mirage in your lane at a high rate of
knots you'll wish every one had them too.
