Remove the DRL relay (30) in the Underhood Fuse Block. Fabricate a jumper (at least #16 AWG) to jumper across terminals 30 & 87a in the socket that was vacated by the DRL relay. This will prevent DRL'* from coming on. It will also disable the DRL function of the Perimeter lighting feature. I thought this was in the TECHINFO, but did not see it. This procedure applies to the 2000+ Bonnevilles. It should not affect the fog lights.

What do you mean you still have interior lights burning with fuse 24 out? You mean upon entry/exit lighting? Did that disable the DRL'* though? I'm curious how to do this as well.
As for the fog lights, I read the other thread about having them on all the time, but on my '05 its a "soft touch" button, meaning it goes back to off every time I turn the car on, and my fogs are not on with my DRL'*, is that not how it is on all GXP'*?

The auto headlights, approch lights, and delayed lighting all seem to work as normal with the fuse gone. .
Thanks for the help folks.
