Because of the limitations of this forum's search, I can't search for "DRL"

I'm importing a US '01 A4 into Canada. It needs to have DRLs to pass inspection. Is there an easy way to enable DRLs on these models? Someone mentioned to me that it might be as simple as plugging in a missing relay, but he didn't elaborate on where, and I'm unable to locate any such "missing" relay.

I'd rather not have to mess with the car's wiring if possible.

Why from the states? Look in autotrader, you should find a few here in Toronto.

Because I live in the US and Canada. Toronto is way farther from me than Vermont. I buy all my vehicles in the US. Importing them is easy and cheap, especially older ones like '01. But all the vehicles I've imported before were GMs, and those already had DRLs (as far back as '98).

Besides, why would I go looking for a different car in some remote location when the one I wanted to buy was right here?

You did! I live in Quebec and Vermont.

Ooops, mis-spelled "Quebec". Fixed it now.
