    DRL Module

    Sometime back, someone on this forum had the DRL Module installed on his MM. Could you send the information/part numbers that dealer used to make this accessory operative on MM?
    Tried a Search for this information but didn't find anything.
    Thanks for any help.

    I don't know that anyone actually went to the dealership to have it installed... All it is is high beams on at low output while you drive... I personally drive with running/fog on when my autolamp isn't engauged.

    Somewhere on here it was said that the lights come on when the wipers are turned on. My car, however, does not do this... Is this another 'nadian thing?

    Lincmerclover,

    I bought my Marauder in Maryland in August. It does turn the lights on when the wipers are activated.

    It's not a Canadian thing, hum, maybe I bougth a north of the border car in Maryland. Anyway, about 30 seconds or so after the wipers come on, my lights will automatically come on. It doesn't matter if the switch is off or in the auto mode. If you drive with your lights on all the time anyway, (running/fog) then you would probably not notice the headlights turning on. They come on even with the wipers in the intermittent mode!

    I'll have to wait a sec then next time I try that... Sergnt, yah, just the running/fog. I don't want to be a total dick and make EVERY person I pull up behind think I'm a cop. At least when they see the fogs, they think twice... plus I think it looks cool as hell (as you can see in my profile pic down there. V

    DRL Module

    I have the part number of the module, F6SZ-13B218-AA.$60.80 list.
    I wanted to find the individual that posted the information so I could communicate with him directly as to his results and what the dealer had to do for installation.
    My lights come on with the Wipers On, would like DRL at other times.

    From what I can gather, the module should just plug in, in the area in front of the radiator. There may be some fuses to add too.

    The DRL "kit" should be listed in the Acccessories catalog.

Looks like there's been a serious splintering. I never thought it'd be possible for this to happen to a group of owners of a car model that sold no more than 14000 copies over 2 model years. Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.

    That was me.

    I'll get the info for you. have to find the invoice.
    I love them. I just leave my headlight switch on the automatic setting and never touch it!

    Bill was correct, the part # on my invoice is F6SZ-13B218-AA, $60.80.
    My problems came from them trying to install the wrong part in the first place.. i also have a copy of the installation instructions.
