Okay so by accident i discovered the secret to turning them off without pulling stuff apart.

Last night I parked in the drive way backwards to unload some stuff and set the e-brake. later when I came back out and restarted it the DRLs didn't come back on!!!

What the?! I released the e-brake and....viola! back on! Re-set the e-brake and nothing....strange. so i killed the engine and restarted it again.....and whaddoyaknow?! no lights!
So the trick is to set the e-brake. Turn it off. Turn it back on and leave the brake set. That doesn't help you guys that want to kill them all the time but at least I now know what I can do to chill at the drive-in with the engine running with blinding everyone

or washing out the screen! I guess you just have to tinker with stuff to learn the tricks!
