PS: I remember a time when people could purchase a module to add DRL's to their non-DRL automobiles.

In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.

Awesome story! Sounds like a great driver to ride with! Cool decision making under stressful conditions is a good trait for all types of driving situations.
Too many times this type of thing goes wrong because even a trained driver (lead or chase) lets the adrenaline get the better of him. Being able to use the adrenaline to focus your mind, rather than letting it switch you into panicked super hero mode is the key.

For the record, I accept the safety benefit of DRL's. I was one of the first drivers I knew who used full lights in daytime on non-DRL cars, and I've ridden motorcycles as well.
But there are times when they're arguably just a waste: eg. driving on a divided freeway. (As opposed to city driving, or driving on a 2 lane highway.)
I'd like the option to disable them in specific circumstances because I don't like wastefulness. But I wouldn't lose sleep over it if it were impossible to do in a car I owned.

BCM, body control module. Most of the options in your car are controlled by the BCM instead of complicated relays. For example, when you touch the turn signal, it flashes a few times regardless of how long you hold it down.
If you want a real ride with a properly trained driver, next time Borden opens up the course to trained people, Ill let you ride shotgun.

Well, thought I would have another look and there is a whole other plate of spaghetti that pulls out from the fuse box. LOL! what a freakin' mess. Still no fuse or wire marked ''disconnect DRL's''

I also had them disabled on my S10 and like to go do on my Micra.
Ahhh Yeah, *****es ain’t ****...
Ok I have a new problem where the DTRL wont come on.
Has anyone found a way to remove DTRL? I can't seem to find DTRL in the fuse boxes.
