7.94. No DRLs. I'm not the original owner, but the original owner
was some rich lady who had it on a lease and didn't know jack
about sporttuning or modifications. Weird. Maybe my relay is bad.
Doesn't bother me, as I dislike DRLs. No big deal.

Mine's the "premium" one, too. I dunno. Like I said, the lady who
owned/leased
the car before I bought it from the dealer's didn't know jack about cars,
so I
don't know if/why anybody went behind the stereo. Maybe another oddity.
But,
once again, no big deal, since I'm glad that it never beeps (except, of
course,
when it's actually going off!). Fluke? No. I'm just odd. It would follow
that
my cars would be odd. Hell, the damned thing's named Rocco ... which is a
common Scirocco nickname. Go figure.
Incidentally, my '84 JettaGLi is named Corwin. Like anybody cares.
