Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

Please refrain from using all capitals as we consider this to be shouting.

Why would you want to turn off the DRLs? I don't think it can be done by removing a fuse.

There are two points that also need to be considered in the UK:

1. The Motor Vehicles Construction and Use Regs may make it an offence to disable them
If a vehicle is made with a part intentionally included, it is inferred, by the act, that if that part is allowed to become defective, or rendered non-functional, the vehicle no longer fits the Construction and Use portion of it's designed function and is thus deemed to be illegally modified. .
2. As this is a modification to the original manufacture you would have to notify your insurance company or they would have a lever to use against you in the event of an accident. Yes, they would go to those lengths to avoid paying out!
