This is a common question and a search will find plenty of information (including photos). Basically, all you have to do is short the two light sensor wires together so that the system thinks it daylight all the time (zero resistance = bright light). That way the headlights will never go on automatically but the switch will work normally.

BTW, DRLs are the amber Daytime Running Lights. When you search for other threads, look for "automatic headlights".

pop your e-brake up a tiny bit so the light comes on and u can control it also if you dont feel like going through the whole mess of things.
