i dont understand one word of that, but the last part.
so we basically doomed.

On an X with HIDs, just take out the DRL bulb. No warning lights, etc.

On a non-hid, pull the DRL relay. Look it up in your service manual to find it.

Got more info on this? On my non-HID X there's a spot for a DRL relay but it's not there.

but that traffic stop might give him a reason for "probable cause" to look for more issues.

IMO if you have the HID lights just take the fuze out cause it makes the car look alot better during the day

remove factory headlight relay from the main fuse box.

install a regular relay triggered by power to the parking lights.
