How can I disconnect the hole ABS-system?

I´m not intressted to pay lots of money (25% of the value of the car).
So now I want to disconnect the ABS-sytem. How do I do that?

In my '93, I pulled the fuse marked ABS

or if you have a 3.1

from the glove box fuse panel very early specially for winter time operation where ABS was just a pain.
SInce then, ABS has quit totally anyway and the hell with it.
SO...pull the fuse out and all is fine.

Oh......of course.......mine too......., but I'm so used to it I do not even notice it anymore.
The lamp is energized through the ABS Lamp Driver MOdule, located behind the parking brake cable bracket. This is a 6 connector plug that looks like this:

..may be after all that time I could take a look myself and kill that light...lol
But there is another 3 amp fuse in the ABS enable relay box, just near and below the brake booster. I did not check if removing this one too would disable the antilock warning . Probably this electronic contact to ground that is part of the electronic brake control module is "on" as default value and is deenergized only when all is in nominal condition.......
