I called nearly all the dealerships in the lower mainland, all the way out to Abbotsford to see if any could install the factory DRL. There was only one that would (could) do it. It was interesting (humorous actually) the range of responses received. One service manager said their guys would have no clue how to do it, another quoted $450.00 to install aftermarket ones.

At first the dealership quoted me $250 to install the factory DRL module, but when I went to pick up the car, the service guy said it was just a programming change made that was required and charged me $56 (including taxes).

To do it yourself, you'll need the Consult-III. If the dealership will agree to turning them off, try the one in Burnaby.
