daytime running lights

Hello everyone!

I am Canadian, and have just purchased a 2004 Corvette Con. from a deaser in Naples Florida. In Canada we must have daytime running lights. Is there an easy way that this can be accomplished without having to tear the wiring apart.

Hope you can help an oldtimer who it trying to capture his youth.

I'm pretty sure it's got running lights unless a former owner disabled them. Every C5 I see here in the US has running lights.

And welcome to the forum.

And welcome to the forum.

Thank you very much for your reply. The car is being shipped to New York state where I will put it on a car hauler and bring it to Canada. Our government is very strict on safety items. I hope you are right about the daytime running lights. The car wa a one owner and it only has 16000 miles on it.

We have to go through a proccess where if it is not there, they charge you what ever to make it conform.

Once again, thank you for the info. Hope this venture of mine is successful.
