does anybody know any good ways to disable the DRL's? I've seen them bypassed to fogs but I want them off all together... i think one of the best ones i saw if i recall was just like soldering a capacitor onto the existing relay which i could do no problem but was iffy about the whole situation because the poster said you could use anything like XX voltage and higher and XX mf and higher. The higher voltage cap makes sense but usually the microfared (sp?) value needs to be on point. Has anybody successfully done any?

If you have hids...all you need to do is take out the 13 fuse on your fuse box...
I believe that is also on the EVO X forum
