Since your rx8 is also grey, as soon as I saw it I wondered to myself, if he's going to put a dinosaur on it.

Well, are you going to pop on a few decals of the dinosaurs?

Pinhy - Search in the DIY section for DRL (Daytime Running Lights). Omicron (among others) put up EXCELLENT directions on how to "fix" this.

there's a thread but I'll sum it up for you...

1. open engine bay fuse box.
2. remove the rear (in reference to the engine bay) fuse block by unclipping the 4 snaps.
3. locate the FOG relay, and the brown wire coming out of the bottom.
4.Locate the ACC relay, it's 2 slots to the rear of the FOG relay. you'll see
5. Cut the brown wire and leave a good amount of slack on the relay end of the wire.
6. Locate the small gauge white and red wire coming from the ACC relay.
7. use a wire tap or splice the brown wire into the red/white wire.

this trigger the fogs to come on with the ignition as long as the switch is on. there's a wire to only have them on with the corner markers, but this way they act as DRL's too.
