Not sure if Bully Dog will do an 05 or not and I would thing that the Dealer would not do it in Canada since that is a law to have them and all.

You may have to come to the US to get it done.

I dont think the dealer will do it here in Canada because its a Law
I only think the bullydog will do it on the 06 and newer ones
Headlights on the 05 are not controlled buy the computer.
thats what I thought I could just pull a fuze or a Relay

If you are in an accident and the insurance company finds out that the DRL's were disabled you may not have any insurance - be careful.

There should be a DRL module somewhere, I haven't looked for it on my 05, but on my 2000 it was mounted on the drivers side fender, and I had a dakota that was also on the drivers side fender. Just unplug that and bye bye daytime running lights. Only problem I had with that was for some reason it was tied into the high beam indicator light. If the module was disconnected, the high beam indicator light would not work.
