Daylight Running Lights
I was given a warning (after pulling the fuse out) when I got my Wof this morning. The electronic circuit I have controlling my DRLs halves the light output when the headlights are turned on. NZ law says quite clearly (I checked) that the DRLs must switch off when the headlights are on. So watch out...
