No DRL ?? Good??

I picked up my 2010 3 door HB last week, 6 months old w 4600 miles and found this wonderful site. Lots of helpful info. I've been thinking about several DIY mods: removing the DRL & maybe the back Toyota name. But , Saturday I checked and I have no DRL. DO you think the first owner did the disabling? As I don't want it anyway I'm probably not going to do anything.

The car came with most packages & options, but I was disappointed yesterday to discover it does not have adjustable intermittent wipers, only fixed one speed. That should be standard. Is it something that could be added?

DRLs were eliminated on 2010's.

For the true intermittent wiper piece, check out this thread for a DIY on replacing the stalk, with a Prius one.

Wow, thanks for the info. I'm happy about the no DRL. The manual says how it works 'if equipped'.

The wiper mod looks simple. But, I'm having trouble finding a low price like you got. Will call some junk yards maybe. The online dealer price was about $148.

OK - Good to know. For US Yaris elimination of DRL is listed in the "New Car Features" for 2010. The Canadian ones still having them explains them still being documented as "if equipped" in the 2010 EWDs.
