Daytime running lights

Has anyone had their computer reprogrammed to either disable the DT running lights or at least have them so the bulbs are not the headlights?
The dealership won't even switch it so the other bulbs are used so I am left with them as is...not acceptable as GM uses a pulsed voltage which in turns wears out bulbs a lot faster than it should...so much for those nice PIAA bulbs I had :disappoin

There's a fuse for it, take it out and see what happens.
