I pulled my fuse the day I got the car and that was a year ago. It will not affect anything else as long as you have the HID style headlights.

Uhh...which fuse did you pull?

As long as you pulled the DRL fuse then you're fine.

Why not run daytime lights? It's not like their robbing your car of huge HP? I guess I like them for their purpose, safety. Not trying to be an idiot, just wondering what you don't like about them?

I'm not the OP, but I just don't like the way they look. I pulled my fuse as soon as I got my X. I think it looks alot better. I know that they are 'supposed' to be for safety reasons but there is always a debate on that and the research disproving how safe they actually are comes up or whatever. I don't really care about the extra .00001% chance of someone hitting me that it might cause. I think it makes a big enough difference in looks.

Doesn't pulling the fuse void your warranty?
