DRL configurations
« on: 17 February 2011, 11:35 »
I have searched but cannot find the answer, so maybe someone knows. Can tail lights be configured to come on with the standard DRL's?

We will be getting a GT TDI with standard headlights and DRL's. I personally don't mind the standard yellowy lights. They remind me of dim-dip headlights from back in the day. But, you do see so many people driving in poor visibility conditions with DRL's and no tail lights. I'm sure my Mrs would be one of these. Her current 307 has auto lights which she tends to rely on, even though they don't always turn on as early as I think they should. So is is possible?

Doc, if you leave the lights in 'On' all the time, is there a delay before they go off when you take the key out like they did in my old Leon? :)

No, you need to leave the switch on auto for the coming home / leaving home lights to work  :wink:

So, are you leaving your switch in the dipped beam position all the time? If so, does everything turn off when you take the key out? I would have thought that would still have left the side/parking lights on.

Turns it all off when you take the keys out.

Are you not getting the auto lights/wipers/mirror with ur GT?

I'll have to go and check now, but I thought just auto wipers. I'm pretty sure auto lights and dimming mirror are part of a convenience pack.

Bugger, I thought I was getting Auto wipers as standard. I hope it's not too late to add the convenience pack to my order.
