Yup, my car has one. It seems kinda silly that you have to have the headlights on for it to work though. I didn't even know that mine worked till I read about that. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

It's actually on the "parking lights" circuit, not the headlight-on circuit. Note that the same circuit runs your license plate lights, so if you re-wire the light make sure you run a separate power circuit to it. Or the "boys in blue" may have a small chat with you some night about your license plate lights...
