if you leave your lights always on they will shut off after you turn the caroff after about15 min. and as soon as you crank the car they are already on...LOL

 

those r annoying in my opinion.. what if u wanna be night rider and sneak up on som1??
YA CANT CAUSE YA DAM LIGHTS ER ON!!
plus i like driving with just my runnign lights sometimes...

but i must that.. twisting that **** to turn the lights on is one hell of a job allright.. prolly burn off a whole twix bar every time i twist that thing!

 

Apparently you didn't know where they placed the button in the 99-04. You had to reach over to the passenger side, over to the glove compartment, open it, then fumble for the button on the edge, oh and if the key was in the ignition, the FOB button wouldn't work...THAT was LAME! At least now all I have to do is push the button on the FOB even if the car is running.

Way more convenient IMO.

 

Its an option for Canadian Stangs only.
DRLs
DaytimeRunningLights

 

its not so much the fact that im lazy or anything, its just thats a lot of money for a car 1st off...and if you went out to the car to get something and didnt have your keys you would have to walk all the way back to the house (a good little walk for me as opposed to other people) and get the keys, i just think thats kinda something that should be standard nowadays

 

DRLs are a gm/canada thing and it's stupid imo...runnin around with your lights on all the time - i hated them on my pontiac...pull up to a gas station or a business at night and are just running in real fast, so i'll just leave the car runnin - well, you can't really unless you want to blind eveyone inside and be considered an ***...another annoying thing, for me, anyway, is people that drive around (usually camaros and mustangs) with parking lamps and foglights on, but no headlights

 

Of course you do know that leaving your car running unattended is not only stupid, it will get you an infraction ticket. Not only that, if your car is stolen while you are MIA, your insurance will have a very convenient way out of paying for the theft.
Just thought you should know. Turning the engine off and taking the keys with you... smart insurance.

 

Nice pounce, DS. You'r right, of course.

 

perhaps i should mention, someone is usually in the car...not to mention...i'm in small town iowa, where people leave keys in the ignition doors unlocked over-night...never seen or heard of anyone leaving their car running getting a ticket, though....in my hometown one of the richest cats there would leave his new vette running right in the parking lot....maybe we just have better morals than you guys - you know, like not stealing - but my car is from the LA area, so it has a securtiy system, and i had to do inner city work for awhile and it was always locked and engaged....and the lights are still dumb...waste of money

 

sorry to hijack the thread but when this went to the trunk unlock thing i couldn't help it-ya know that Ford makes a wireless door lock unlock accessory that unlocks the trunk. Most Ford cars and trucks have this as standard, but Ford makes a wireless version, available on ebay, that also unlocks the truck. For those of us that thought it a bit too ugly on the side of the car, well then you can mount it behind the gas fill door. I love mine.
