No more Driving Lights

For instance, My family and neighbors each year go out for the nights of
lights christmas tour. We all pile in the bed of the truck and drive
through the display. With the lights of the truck on, people honk at us
because we are blinding them. Thats just one reason. Thats why I wish
there was an override switch. But instead, I just disconnected them.

Hi,
Would you describe how you disconnected the daytime driving lights. I
would like to do that to my 2004 Tundra.
Thanks,
Al

Since most vehicles have the DRLs, why are you one of the few with lights on
when viewing Christmas lights? How are the other vehicles shutting them
off?

also a small note that where I live (BC) and probubly other places, it
is illegal to drive without DRLs in the day.

Yep, its really easy. Under the hood, locate the battery. Now in
between the battery and the side firewall you will find a grey electrical
connector. Its attachted to the firewall. Simply disconnect it.
Thats it.

I went to the magical nights of lights here in Atlanta last night, and
finally didn't have to have everyone flashing theyre lights at me to get me
to turn mine off. It was wonderful.
