Who has been successful at completely disabling DRLs?

Who has been successful at completely disabling DRLs?


Anyone have a harness mod? Prefer a plug-and-play mod.

What have you found to work?

In the Corvette, every time I start the car, I flip the switch back and that cancels the DRLs. Is the Camaro 2SS RS the same?

...how to eliminate DRLs

I did, Made a relay harness to do the work, don't have to do any thing lights come back on with the dark, and go off as soon as it gets light, This is on a non RS car, Have to think on how to do it on a RS car.

Daytime Running Lights, or auto headlights?
If DRLs, just take the bulb out...

Yes it's the same.

So when are you going to make something for us? Still looking for a plug-n-play option.

There's your answer... ^^^^^

I got a harness from FwyFlyer that swaps the DRL w/ Halos... works great... then got some Plasma DRL bulbs from AAC so the DRLs match the headlights when on at night.

Halos are my new DRLs now...

Taking the bulb out will look terrible. I snipped the wire and ran it to a switch and feed power from the halos. Now I can run the halos and the fog lights(shut it, I know they aren't fogs but whatever) and also have full control over them with the switch. The DRL never come on because I cut the feed wire. I despise DRLs.
