I assume all GTO's and new cars have 'em. I HATE THEM!!! :willy: I happy to see that the GTO is a fuse to disconnect them. Has anyone else done this? If you cant see someone coming in broad daylight you should be driving!!! :confused

I'm telling you, the populace, in general, is too stupid to think of it. In their minds, if the headlights are on, then surely the tail lights must be too.Good 2 go said:What amazes me is that there are so many folks that don't turn their lights on early in the morning when it's still dark, when it's foggy or during heavy rain.

I chose to leave mine on, because I want someone to see me coming. You'd be surprised at all the "blind" people driving.... At least with the day lights other drivers should see me. The operative word is should.
You'll have to go through your different modes and familiarize yourself with the different functions. Without me physically getting in my car and going through the process I cannot remember the exact steps. I did come across this when I was setting up my functions. In the one menu it did ask me if I wanted to disable the DRL and it was preset to no. Perhaps it's in the manual.cat1055man said:Judge,
How do you disable the DRL using the onboard computer?:cheers
There are two menus. The "setup" menu can be accessed when you start the car and after it goes through the onboard tests. I'm assuming that's the one you have gone through, and there is no option to turn them off.cat1055man said:Judge,

That is so funny...I was just sitting here thinking about how much fun it would have been to own this car when I was stationed in Germany. On the Autobahn, if you saw a couple flashes in the rear-view, that was your cue to get the hell out of the way, and people actually respond. Most all German drivers are better than Americans.J.E.T. said:I like 'em and even wish they "flashed" a little like some motorcycle headlights do. Maybe people would get out of the damn passing lane more if they saw flashing lights behind them........

Did a two year term there myself.......man, wouldn't this car have been nice over there?ShoddyHog said:That is so funny...I was just sitting here thinking about how much fun it would have been to own this car when I was stationed in Germany.

I have to disagree with you on the flashing lights. I find them pretty annoying on motorcycles, and if all cars did that as well, it would be very distracting for the drones who have hard enough time dealing with the thought that they don't have to have a cell phone plastered to their heads 24x7.
Oh man...it would have been sweet as hell, ESPECIALLY with other drivers on the road that are courteous. Have you just cruised in this thing at 100? I could ride all day in this car at that speed like nothing, and as I'm sure you know, the Autobahn is built for the speed too.J.E.T. said:Did a two year term there myself.......man, wouldn't this car have been nice over there?

What year do you have? I have a '06 and it doesn't honk when I lock or unlock.RipTheSix said:So if you pull the fuse, does that totally kill the lights at night?
And while were on this sort of topic, How do you have you horn honk only when locking, not when you un-lock, I hate the three honks when you un lock. Can you change this.
