Ah! The *back* of the car! That is a GREAT idea! I hadn't considered it since I connected mine in the front with the radio swap. Your idea is WAY better if you're not messing with the wires behind the radio.

You buy the license by providing your VIN at purchase. I forget his cadence, but shortly after that, the app will check OTA for your VIN. You'll need WiFi or cellular. If your VIN is there, your app will unlock and you're off to the races.

But this is weird- I *swear* that I have selected Denmark or Germany, or something in the app for DRLs. That's what's worked, I think. We're headed out for lunch, so I will play with it and see if I can get a pic.
