I'd be more concerned with not having a side marker at night than no DRL during the day....Heads up, when you code the side markers on park lights.....they also remain off when your headlights are on.

If you insist on using the AE's as the DRL, I would recommend going the hardwire route to keep your corners operating normally. (and avoid a potential ticket for not having a front side marker)

Either way, just be aware that your AE's will wash out in the day... and aren't nearly bright enough to be classified as a DRL anywhere in Canada (If I recall, they have to be 700-1200 lumen, with specific dispersion to be DRL's). It's all been discussed a million times over though...

Here's a link to the hardwire diagram: http://www.xoutpost.com/900682-post21.html
