and if you really want to park with lights off, lift the parking brake and turn the lights to OFF, and they will turn off ;-)

i want to drive the night in the city with only my fogs... thats why.. it looks way better and give a nice look... also i dont always want to drive with my headlight on...

that's just why tho..

but putting e-brake on and putting auto-light off.. after removing the e-brake they do one of just click the e-brake 1 time and auto-light off and drive away they come back on right away

fogs are always on.. and i removed my DRL.. and i run the night time with headlight vent shades.. and i painted the place where the light are black... but looks awful..

so i just want to remove the light..

and wont need the headlight cover on the night..and in 3 months.. never got stop or asked why..+ my RX-7 i was always on my fogs and never got pulled over for my headlight not on..

but if the canadian cars are made like that... why did the put the arm to put our lights on manually..

its likes there for nothing.. + when we put the fogs on.. the flashers come on auto.. so 05 DRL are there... cops are stupid they are not gonna know difference from a 07 to a 05

folks, hes in canada, they are required by law to have drl. If you cut it, you will probably throw a code for loss of communication with drl sensor. look for the fuse and pull that

the canadian cars dont have the option to turn off the auto lights, they are either on or off. But when the e-brake is off the light are on

tried all the fuses in the car.. or if their more than the ones in the engine bay...

no of them works..

but its not the DRl i want to turn if.. its just to use the control of light manually.. like not light.. fogs and flasher or all lights on

Why don't you... pull the bulbs? No lights to ignite, no light period?

Overall I think it sounds like a dumb idea, but I went with an HID Retrofit to produce more light when i drive at night.

Check the fuse panel on the right side of the tunnel, in the passanger footwell. It might have a DRL fuse, but seeing as your cars light system is different, I can't say for sure.

I thought, at least on the US cars, that there is a DRL relay/fuse in the underhood box, but I might be wrong.

...would you also like me to cut a hole in your floorboard so you can operate your car like the flinstones.
Maybe cut your turn signal wires so you can signal with your hands.

Remove the AC and put in a misting ocelating fan
