just wire the stock fogs to ACC power (key on) so they turn on as soon as you start the car instead of using some bad looking LED lights.

Do rx8's have these or are these optional on some models? Just curious.

I was under the impression that the car's on board computers could be programmed to have the car run DRLs (and light- sensing headlights that turn on at dusk, like some Toyotas have)

At least the dash seems to have the light sensor on it... anyone know?
