Turning DRL off in Chicago-land

Hi fellas I have two questions ok! Today I called Bill Jacobs BMW in Naperville and asked if they could turn my DRL off .! They said NO!! And that that's a safety feature ,and they can't turn it off !! Just wondering if anyone in Chicago-land would know of a shop that could turn them off for me ??

It will have to be reprogrammed by the dealer. They usually charge you $50 to do so. There's a form to fill out. Patrick and Perillo have done my cars in the past.

This is assuming that you have an E39. If you have an E60, that can be done through i-drive.
