Called 4-5 dealers so far in LA area and none of them would do it.. Next, I will try calling dealerships in OC area.

Anyways, without the HID's on, they are just a bright dot, which is nice, since it's not yellow anymore. Will post pictures later.
anxiously awaiting your pics

God that is so lame!!! Id be so pissed! I walked right into my dealership (Sacramento) with a hand written list of all the LPSs I wanted changed including the DRLs turned off. They never said anything to me, just called me about an hour later with my car done, and everything was done as requested.

Isn't turning off DRL an option in the owner's manual? It is in the 3GS...

Well in Canada, it's a must, and I believe that some parts of the US are making it mandatory as well.

Default These are PIAA Xtreme White Plus 9005 DRL's

Still yellow at low power, nicer high beam but not worth the switch in my opinion. I'd want a bright LED or a way to increase the wattage of the DRL's.
