Thanks. I expect that there is no punishment for refusing to show ID when asked at such a stop.

  Hehe, maybe review some of the huge swath of border checkpoint refusal videos on YouTube before making such an assumption. Some people get away with it, and some do not. Refusing to show ID might be justification for detainment or arrest. Also, pro tip: when crossing the CA border, if they do ask for ID or ask for you to get out of your car, make sure to buckle your seat belt before you drive. The cops waiting there will pull you over for buckling 3 seconds after you start moving, I learned first hand.
