Daytime Running Lights

I have a 99.5 F250 and would like to shut them off. Is there an easy way? Pull a fuse? Trick a relay?

Talking Yes . . .

Simplist way is to cut a small piece of card board circle to fit in the socket and have it there between the contacts and the power. DONE, no DRL's!

Always can be taken out if you want them to work in the future

I did that on my C5 Corvettes in the two DRL relays under dash.

Where is?

What is the 'socket'?

Thanks.

Thinking...you mean the headlight DRL socket? I have a plow and the DRL turns the lights on, on that too. I would like to eliminate that as well so I need to get to the source relay, fuse, or dodad.
