Thanks for the info. I did the same thing with one of my Mercedes. I think I will leave the lights alone for now. I did order the K&N system tonight. I have one on my Vette and it does add power. Looking forward to installing it next week.

ok. After a series of test in my garage. i've come to the conclusion that you can just pull the fuse. lol... its DRL #39 i have the headlights as daytime running lights but im thinking it works the same for both. pull the fuse and the auto lights still work. The daytime running lights just dont turn on.
YOU ROCK!!!! I should have thought of that I guess. I just figured if i pulled the fuse, the blinkers wouldn't work...

Also, I'm jealous that the new ones have a little cubby in front of the shifter!

not all of them Mark, newer ones have the headlights as daytime running lights. My ambers are for turn signals only.

Well, I went out to pull the fuse for the DRLs today and.... there is NO fuse in the spot where the manual says the DRL fuse should be... nor is there a relay for it. Also and interesting thing, my manual says fuse 39 is for the headlight DRLs and NOT the side marker DRLs. bastids... gotta keep searching

if the side amber drls use a dual filament bulb then there has to be dual power inputs. If you want the drls off find the +12volt wire that goes into the bulb harness plug that powers on the drls and snip it.

I do NOT have daytime running lights, but i do have the turn signals that are on in the front, or, the parking lights, until I turn them off with the dial. I have not seen ONE H3 in Chicago that has DRL's. There are quite a few of them in this area too. I find that a bit odd. Although mine is the only one I have seen that has the parking/turn signal lights in the front on all the time by default unless I turn them off. Maybe mine is just special.

Those are your DRLs. Not all vehicles use the headlights for DRLs. Some GM, Toyota, and maybe Nissan products use the front marker lights for DRLs.
