With the 03/04 the drl is the low beam and if i remember right you could just pull the drl relay and it will eliminate the drl function completely so you'd be able to manually turn on your lights during the day without issue. The auto lights should still function normally at night and it shouldn't throw any warning lights

You just remove one of the tabs on the DRL relay. I can check which one for you tomorrow, I believe you need the relay to maintain other light functions but removing the one tab leaves everything functioning normal but with no drls.

Relay #22 the one to the right of the top left corner. Pin 87. I thought I had cut it, but upon removing, I discovered I just bent the tab, been that way for over a year. Should fix your problems!
