Paul, cars are manufactured to meet country specific emission and other regulated safety requirements. Canada does have different bumper and day light running light requirements, so I'm sure that's the way they are built in Germany if exporting to Canada. Are you sure the day light running lights are not just a an internal switch? My S60 Volvo had a small screw where you could make the adjustment.
