by adding the shunts, you will be abel to even with you r stock headlight
switch, use your high, low and fog lights all at the same time to
increase night time visibility.

My 97 ran DRLs at full brightness (there was no visible change in light
intensity when I switched them on at night). You need to pull relay #173
to kill the DRLs. The Euro switch provides you with increased control
over your lighting options - it needs to be installed in conjunction
with a couple of shunts/jumpers that you place in replacement of another
relay you have to pull out (relay #110). Here is the URL for the proper
procedure:

The Euro switch is available from Timmons VW in Long Beach, CA. It costs
$70 plus like $4 for the shunts/jumpers.

Good luck!
