Going to be interesting to see how the final regulations are written and which company benefits the most. By this I mean this whole area is will pretty much the Wild West. There are initial regulations governing the requirements of such work but they are by no means final. An example of how favoritism towards manufacturers works in this area is the 7500 tax rebate for battery equipped cars. It was practically carved out to meet the requirements GM had for the first generation Volt. GM also played a big factor in how DRLs were regulated, they wanted to save money on the the voltage converter so a higher limit was allowed.
