This is ONLY on the Euro models
Because it is the LAW over there!

Also they have side markers
Amber markers in the rear and tail lights and a Small lamp that looks like AZZ in the front headlap that stays lit when parked

Some countries overseas require them. They're only in the C6s that went overseas. I don't miss them here.

anything that takes away from the lines of the vehicle like they do can stay in Europe for all I care. Have you ever really needed to wash your headlights?

Headlight washers are silly IMHO. I've had them on european cars and never used them intentionally. When I used them unintentionally they usually messed up my fresh wash job.

The first thing you need to do is reinstall circuit breaker #46. Then wait for the first DBS problem.
