    What do you mean dealer option - what are the settings, and can you change what it controls (like auto headlights)?

    Does this sensor have an effect on daytime running lights. Meaning on the Canadian models will the DRL's come on at night if the headlights are turned off?

    On Canadian models, the lights are always on, day or night.

    Do the Canadians consider DRL as a separate lights or are they the headlights?
