It should be in your owner's manual.

Pull fuse #37, under the steering wheel, to your left.

And...no. It won't hurt anything to pull the fuse. You just won't have DRLs.

I don't see why Honda didn't put on option on the turn signal stalk to turn the DRL's off.

Personally I like having DRL's + cornerlights especially around dawn or dusk when it's somewhat dim out yet not dark enough to use one's low beams.

It depends on how you wired it, not the years of the car. OEM fogs requires your headlights to be on, aftermarket ones does not.

This.

Once I get my fog light housing color matched, I'll eventually use those as well.

All 09+ Si come with fogs automatically, it is no longer an option. The older ones that came with the fogs installed as an option (like mine) still had to have the headlights on to use the fogs. But I bypassed the relay so I can have my fogs one whenever I want.

Fogs + corners FTW
