I heard pulling the relay prevents some of the other idiot lights from coming on. So that isnt really a good idea. All you need to do is pull down the fuse panel and look behind where #173 was installed. Just disconnect the yellow wire. No need for electrical tape or pulling relays. No need to pull the headlight switch either.
