    Ive looked all thru this site and everything ive found so far is how to disable the amber DRLs. Anyone have any idea how to disable the LED strip DRL on the bottom of the headlight?

    You cant just shut them off? My 2019 has the LED strip around the headlight but only if i put the switch in the off position they are not on. Maybe there is an option on the dash or head unit? My subaru had a DRL wire on the lights that could be unplugged.

    Unfortunately not. I’ve read about exploiting a bypass with pushing the e-brake pedal one click, but I guess that was corrected in 2016 and they stay on unless the pedal is actually engaging the brakes.

    On my dads 2014 1794 you could pull a fuse, then the DRL would only come on if you rotated the headlight stalk one click, the next click would then turn on the lowbeams.

    I think the fuse might’ve been labeled DRL, and it was in the engine bay fuse box, not the cabin fuse box

    I was able to check today. There IS a fuse specifically for the led DRL's... It's actually funny there's a fuse just for those. While headlights are off, no LED DRLs. When headlights are on, they're on. Kind of weird but thanks for the info. I thought would be much more difficult than that.
