I find LRs specs strange at times, the Fl2 GS had auto lights (at one point) and the GS Disco didn't, now the SE Disco has them and the SE Fl2 doesn't 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200 |

I've suffered the same - is it possible to retro fit auto lights? No Longer the owner of a 2013MY Fuji White GS

I've found the auto lights sensor is a bit crap anyway - better to rely on the driver rather than a set of algorithms buried in the car's software - on Auto setting on mine it can take quite a while for the software to react to changing light levels just at the time when the lights could do with being on!

With so many cars having DRL now I think auto lights should be law. I keep seeing drivers driving at night thinking they have headlights on...They can see forwards because the DRLs are so bright, but have no tail lights on at all...just dangerous. |

A wonderful law from europe that makes lights at the front on all the time but they forgot the back of the car. However they have allowed cars to be manufactured so they drive on sidelights only too. Why has that not been engineered out? So if you turn lights on and move your get headlights not sidelights! grr rant over

My DS had the rear lights on with the DRLs on, apparently it wasn't supposed to be like that. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200 |

I drive with my automatic lights on all the time and find them generally OK. They fail to come on in daylight fog though - and sometimes in daytime rain. Obviously as with all driving aids you need to be aware of what's going on but I do think they're a positive rather than a problem. Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto
