Default !DRL Question

I'm going to do the !DRL mod tomorrow. I was looking for instructions and I came up on this:

If you've done this mod, are there any draw backs? How difficult is it? Seems easy enough...

Ok, it's done. The directions said it would take about 10 mins. It took me an hour. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
I couldn't get that damned wire harness off to save my life. The clip that held it in place must've been world class! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I didn't notice whether or not the hatch release button and the emergency brake light on the dash work or not. I'll have to check that out tomorrow.

I thought everything was ok. I was wrong. The !DRL is cool since I can have the ground lights on without the headlights, but now the damned turn signals won't blink! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />
I'm going hook up the DRL again unless anyone has a suggestion...
