Short the two wires attached to the light sensor. The daylight sensor is on the right of the center dash vent, and is easily accessible by raising the dash cover.
I used a scotch lock on mine.

I deactivated my daytime running lights on my 99 SS and my old 2000 WS6 by pulling the radio and thensimply unpluging one of the two wires(but I can't remember which one). By doing this also deactivated the auto-on feature too.
