How would I identify a Canadian delivered car?

Carfax has the car as delivered to New Jersey - how would I identify if was Canada-spec?

The only reason I asked if it was a Canadian car was because the spec for that country have day time running lights. When those cars come to the US some people pull the relay. Then after that, sometimes the license plate lights do not work.

There is a sticker on the door. There is also an option sticker and C36 is for Canada.

If you do not have a Canadian spec car with the relay pulled, then you have something else going on.

But for all I know, your rear bumper cover was replaced, and the connector not hooked up.
