I know in my Honda Fit, all I had to do was remove the DRL fuse in the fuse box next to your feet. If Acura is the same, just figure out which is the DRL fuse and remove it. Should work.

Yea if you don't care about the DRL Warning on the Dash, that would be your best bet. Unless you remove the bulbs which involved removing the from bumper but this might trigger the warning light as well. I think you should leave them alone and just put some LED bulbs in them and call it a day. No Warning lights and no ugly Halogen bulbs to look at...
This is what im doing

Pull fuse #3 under the dash. Unless the "DRL" light freaks you out, this is what I'd do. I'm not a big DRL fan.

Pull the DRL fuse or remove the bulbs.
Add 2ohm 50watt load resistors on each side of the bulbs connection, no DRL error on dash. You can get em here they are plug and play with your stock harness for the DRL.... https://acurazine.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=93

btw I have mine so I can turn mine on and off and love that set up....

you would have to splice them in into your stock connection which is no biggie, but its a cheap fix

I am not certain that the light will even come on after you remove the fuse. However, it WILL come on if you remove the bulbs. I suggest you just give it a whirl and find our for yourself. If the light does come on, just pop the fuse back in. Good Luck
