My dealer did it for free when I had my first LOF (also free) done.

My dealer wanted to charge me 1-hour of labor for turning on autolock. I refused. Later on, the customer service adviser called me to see if I was happy about their service, so I dumped my complaint to him. He agreed. He made sure that the 1st customer setting adjustment should be free for all customers at his dealership. I went in to have it done for free on my following oil change.

So, talk to your dealer. It is not abnormal for customers to adjust factory settings. It is usually free for the 1st time on whatever settings you prefer. However, if you should decide to turn it back, then, it will cost you $$$. That makes sense.

Anybody know how to have the interior lights turn on when you turn off the ignition using the keyless ignition? I have the advanced credit card key, and if I use the metal key the interior lights turn on when I pull the key out of the ignition, but if I just use the keyless start I have to unlock the doors to turn on the interior lights. Since the door lock button isn't lit, I find this very annoying! I shouldn't have to use the metal key to get the lights to turn on when I turn the ignition off.

Rewired Fogs to run without headlights on (found this info on some other forum..)

If anyone is interested in a simple way (based on your wiring skills of course) to do this here goes:

(May have to have heated seats for this..)

On small (4 relay) box in very front of engine compartment above fans.
Open top of box, detach from front, and remove bottom cover. Of the four relays, the two SMALLER ones are: fogs (right one viewed from front) and heated seats (2nd from left viewed from front). The pink wire on the SEAT relay provides ignition power (what you want) the green w/red wire on the Fogs relay provides switched power from the headlight relay ( Hate that!). I cut the green wire far enough back that I could splice into the pink wire. Be sure to insulate the left over stub from the green wire. Now the fog relay is "hot" when ignition is on instead of when headlights are on. Done.

(If you don't have the pink wire due to no heated seats..all you need to do is get and ignition source wire to this relay instead)

Now your fogs will come on with ignition and still function on/off from the stock switch (which provides the relay ground thus eliminating the need for an add-on switch)

bump....

if anyone has successfully done this already, can you kindly please post a quick picture of the mod just so those interested do it right ?

it would be nice to have just the foglights light up by itself, independent of the main headlights.
