I guess you could unplug the bulbs out..not sure if that would give an error message.

The 2006 GS, you can turn off the daytime running light by using the customization function. You will have to go to the dealership and ask them to turn it off with the scan tool.

Here's the situation

(1) The dealer said there's no way to switch off the day lights for MY06 GS.
(2) I swapped all bulbs to 6000k (white beam) in day_1 as I usually do to my car.
Unforunately, the hi-beam (day light) is the same bulb,the lower current burn it YELLOWish.
in day light mode where it's perfect white in Hi-beam mode. .

Could anyone share the procedure to switch it off thru dealer's computer ?
