GM does it on all models in the US also. I've been mulling over the idea of setting up a single bright LED that I could leave on all the time.

The handbrake on my Saturn is too new also. I once saw a diagram that showed how to disable them but I can't seem to find it now. I remember that it was fairly simple and basiclly involved a jumper wire where a relay goes. Has anyone else heard of this?

DRLs are mandatory in Canada for safety reasons. Toyotas don't have them in the US but Hondas do because Honda is too smart to make different cars for the US/Canada. Anyway, you get money off on your insurance if you have DRLs.

My dad saved so much money on his insurance by switiching from an old car to a new accord. He lowered his insurance payments by $20 a month. The new accord has 8 air bags, ABS, lo jack, alarm and probably other stuff.

I don't know if he has DRL, but he's still saving a bundle.

I saved money by having a good gpa and driving a car not worth enough to get comprehensive on,

I already pay a lot less. All you got to do is show proof you drive less. After i showwed proof they gave me a discount of $22 a month.

There's an insurance company here that offers discounts based on your ODB2 output. They send you a module to plug in, and you use your home computer to upload the data to them every so often. If you drive less, slow, and mostly during the day, you can get a massive discount.

I'd probably be using it if it weren't for the fact I need my port for the SG.

Does that discount include pushing the car? Sometimes my car is so slow it looks like someone is pushing it.

Have not peaked yet. Another record tank. 37.45 been FASing on this tank. With improvement on technique I might be able to sneak into the top 10
