No, the DRL sockets are removed and will no longer work with this mod. In essence, you are adding a second parking lamp/turn signal socket into the spot that the DRL used to occupy.

I'll have to get it on video to better illustrate how it looks. This will give you a little better idea of how it looks...the small 194 bulb on the outside blinks opposite of the two lamps closer to the grille. The two lamps closest to the grille blink together.

Radio Shack! I just wrapped everything up in electrical tape REALLY tightly. It should be fine.

I thought they looked cheesy too, but that little piece that looks like molding flash is actually there to hold the wire in while you crimp it.

The 194 is definitely there for a reason...if it doesn't illuminate at all, then there is something wrong.
