A little help please
Anybody know how difficult it would be to get a US model car legal in Canada? Or the steps necessary to make it happen? Thanks.

Re: A little help please
Don't they need Day Time Running Lights? That's all I can think of. You might want to contact like the DMV or something and they should be able to connect you with someone that would know.

Re: A little help please
You'll need daytime running headlights for sure. You might be put through a smog test, so also keep this in mind. You won't need a re-renforced bar behind your bumper, as many other cars do just because of the Talon counterparts that are already in Canada that are built the same. You will be charged $100 for having an air conditioner also, working or not. I plan on importing my next vehicle by summer time, and as of late, this has been my best friend: http://www.riv.ca/english/html/how_to_import.html
It shouldn't be too difficult to import an Eclipse, hell, I've got my hands on one. Good luck

Re: A little help please
if the vehicle is one that is also made in Canada, it shouldn't be too hard...
If your speedometer shows km/h you should be straight there, ^and like stated, the DRLs... They also had something different a/b the seat belts... I b/l they required stationary belts... I can't remember... check with the DMV... and I'd post the site, but I don't have it, there's a customs site that tells you how to get things into Canada...

Re: A little help please
Dude... its Canada. Thats reason enough in and of itself.
 Besides, it is Canada, how hot could it possibly get? Like 5 days a year above 75?
