Default 2 questions in one...

How do I disconnect the daytime running yellow headlights?

and

the right side marker is white instead of yellow... I don't know if water got in or what, but what makes it yellow the cover or the actual bulb? I'm not sure if the bulb is bad or the cover has faded.

I think you can disable the drl in your dic.
The yellow is just the bulb.

You can disable them buy removing a fuse in the fuse box underneath the passenger footwell. I believe it is the #2 fuse if I remember right (I can check tomorrow if no one else chimes in or try yourself and see). This will turn off the drl's. When you unlock your car with the fob, the reverse lights normally come on. When you remove this fuse they no longer will. They still will work though when the car is in reverse.
