I am told that I have two options: (1) Run with parking lights (2) Run with full head lights and that these options are "dealer programmed". Is there some way that I can get low level headlights--not low beam but low level and low beam or... fog lights only? or some other suitable combination which is easier on the lamps and/or the alternator. I am beyond warranty so I am not concerned about voiding anything.But would prefer a simple fix. I visit my children in Ontario frequently and headlights as running lights is the only legal option there and it is only a matter of time before some cop decides to ticket me despite My US (Maryland) plates. It appears that their law reads something like"white lights on the front at all times so that is why I suggested full time fog lights and I think that would be accepted by the local constabulary. This is not a matter of convenience, What are the Ontarians doing? Best to all and thanks in advance. Malcolm Mason
