Simple 5 minute job. There is no TSB out yet from Toyota, but it doesn't get any easier then this!

NOTE *I will update this post tomorrow with pictures of everything*

Tools Needed:
Medium size phillips screwdriver... thats it!

To gain enough room to access the DRL Relay, you need to first remove the steering column plastic cover..

Now, look under your steering wheel, you will see the height adjustment lever to tilt the steering wheel column, up and down.
Just to the right of the lever, you will see a Silver phillps head screw, remove it.

Now, with your hands on the steering wheel, at 9 o'clock, and 3 o'clock, turn the wheel 1/4 turn to the right. You will see a Black phillips head screw, remove it.

Now turn wheel back to center, and repeat for other side. Turn wheel 1/4 turn to the left. You will see a Black phillips head screw, remove it.

The steering column plastic can now be removed.. pull it down and towards you, it will snap out of place.

Now look back behind the dash, up and over towards the radio, and you will see a black box about the size of a pack of cigaretts with a brown lable, "TOYOTA RELAY ASSY RUNNING LIGHT 82810-52040."
Depress the white tab, and unhook the plug from the relay box.

Your finished!

Pictures, and full review of my H4 HIDs and LED parking lights tomorrow.

Your welcome.

Since when does the 2007 Yaris have DRL? My IS 250 has DRL, but I haven't seen nor heard that on the Yaris.

I'm going to do this cause I'm forgetting to turn my lights on at night cause the silly cluster is lit and I sub-consciously think they are on.
maybe without the DRL I will notice quicker.

i agree it is silly! I often see people driving with no rear lights because the DRLs are on. However since it is illegal to drive without DRL in Canada I drive with sidelights on in daylight - when I remember! :-)
