dezzie, go to a dealership and ask them to disable your DRL. Dealerships have a device that can turn the system off. However, if they are dicks they may not do it because its by law u have to have DRL. The 3 dodge dealerships around me all CAN do it, but said they wouldnt. Here is a diagram i used on my truck, it should be the same thing for your lights. It will make your highbeams come on at a lower output for DRL, then when u turn your lights on for night driving, your lowbeams will turn on and if need be, your highbeams will work normal.

Took me about 30mins to do each headlight. Was doing it while i was watching JAG...lol. It's really easy to do. Hardest part was running the red wire to the battery because i wanted it out of sight for a clean look.
