I agree, I love that fact that they are so idiot proof. It's one less thing I have to worry about while I'm driving, automatic lights are the #@$%!

These guys really hate 'em:

Association of Drivers Against Daytime Running Lights

The fogs on my '90 Daytona are effectively DRL's now. I hated how you couldn't turn the fog lights on with the parking lights on this car (gotta look cool in the parking lots at dusk, you know ). They came on with low beam, and low beam ONLY. Originally I was going to run them to their own separate switch, but then I just wired them to come on with the ignition. Honestly I couldn't find a spot I liked for the switch. I still may add a switch later though, unsure.
