i was wondering if the s2000's that are down in the states come equipped with daytime running lights. i live in ontario canada and am planning on bringing one up here. with our regulations, they have to be equipped. If they arent on them, are the cars already pre-wired for it, so i would just have to get a DRL module, plug it in and go?
thanks for your help

i have '03 AP1 and the car doesn't have the DRL's. Not sure if it has the function prewired or not.

 

my 01 doesnt have it

 

I have an '06 and I have them. Pretty sure they were added in '06.

 

they were equipped in 06 and up models,....those before are SOL'ed unless you want to wire it yourself,...there is write up on s2ki.com about adding it

 

I imported mine also from the states.
THere is no need for a DRL module. I can recommend a shop in TO to wire the parking ambers and that is sufficient to pass RIV. After that, you can choose to switch back or leave as is.

 

if you could give me the info on that T.O. shop, that'd be perfect. what else did you have to do (if anything) to make it legal here?

I lost their biz card but above is their directory page. Ask for Leonard.
I paid $80 or so.

The only other things you need are to do an emissions test and a safety prior to going to Canadian Tire for the RIV inspection.

 

thanks for that site. when i get the car, i'll definetly talk to them. how do you like it with the ambers on for drl's (looks/function)? did you keep it that way or switch back?

No prob. I actually like the look although it is only the parking ambers that are on so it is not overly noticeable in bright light. I think I'll leave it this way to increase visibility in low light conditions.
