Coupes going to Canada from USA.. What about DRLs?

How do they add/enable the required DRL functions on coupes or sedans for that matter so they be legally used in Canada ?

Just a curious question !

You only need to know about it if you are registering a vehicle from the US into Canada as Canada, by law, requires Daytime Running Lights (DRL) on their vehicles. If you're just visiting you will be fine, CallMeTonka.

Infiniti can install DRL but they quoted me $400 bucks. Canadian Tire sells a DRL pack for $30 bucks. What I did due to time constraints was find this local company that imports cars from the states. They had a shop that installed the DRL on their cars, and just asked if they could do mine. $80 bucks later and I was good to go.
