Default Civic LX 03 Daytime Running Lights - HELP

Hi:
I have a Honda Civic LX 2003 and it comes with Daytime Running Lights enabled.
My questions are:

1.- Is it possible to switch this role from the high-beam lights to the parking lights? How?

2.- If the above is not possible, then how do I disable Daytime Running Lights?

Thank you.

check the fuses under the dash and see what they go to otherwise ur gonna need to buy a haynes helms or chiltons with wiring diagrams on ur particular make and model and do some rewiring. its completely possible just requires some work, and a good diagram of how the wiring is all hooked up.

All the cars at the dealership where I got my car at, had DRL installed. I looked at the fuse diagram in the manual, and there are two fuses labeled DRL *canadian models only. I removed both fuses but it didnt work at all, the lights were still on, so I just wonder what the hell did they do with that. My concern is because I replaced the stock halogen bulbs with XENON bulbs, which are known to have a limited life.
Any ideas welcome, thanks alot to the ones that are trying to help me already.

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out where the fuses under the dash go to and haven't found yet a repair manual for the 2003 models.
