Anyone know how to turn the daytime running lights off?
I absolutely cannot stand these things.
If anyone were to be so kind as to tell me how to get rid of these, I would really appreciate it.

There are two modules behind the radio that are mounted against the firewall. Unplug the module to the far right and DRLs go away. You can either remove the radio to access the module or you can lay on the passenger floor and reach back behind the radio to unplug this module.
Be aware that by unplugging this module, you will now need to turn on your lights manually at night and the emergency brake light will no longer illuminate. There is another option, but it requires taking the unplugged module apart and soldering some jumper wires.
Good luck.

Enjoy the added safety. You can't see them while you are driving anyways. I just wish there was an easier way to defeat the auto headlights at night. My Blazer you just push the dome light defeat 4 times in 6 seconds....
