Question Can I disable the daytime running head lights?

Tends to annoy co workers when I'm in the parking lot keeping warm waiting till it's time to go in. I tried to look to see if there is a fuse specifically for the daytime running light and it looks like it's a 7.5 fuse however the diagram is horrible, it's hard to see it on the kick panel and doesn't appear to match the position on the actual fuse panel.

So if there is a fuse just for this feature, can someone show me a pic of which one it is specifically?

As an alternative, if you start the engine with the handbrake set the DRLs will not come on until you release the handbrake. (On an automatic, you might have the same thing with leaving it in park, no handbrake needed.) You could park your car at your work, turn it off, set the handbrake, and restart the engine and not annoy your coworkers.

and still have DRLs. Alternative is to back it in parking spot?

What are coworkers doing that it annoys them? Tell them to stop staring at lights

lol, well none of that was helpful whatsoever. *clap.
Which one is supposed to be #15? do you count up from the left and start the next row going down/up? Down from the left then down on the next row? From the right side. Do you count the relay's as numbers too? the fuse panel is not labeled, only the diagram on the side of the kick panel which is a bear just to view.
