Default New and easy PnP mod for DRL on with headlights

I saw this posted on FB in the 370Z page and I wanted to see if anyone on the forums has seen or tried this new DRL mod? I spoke with the mod creator; they say you do not have to cut or splice any wires with this mod. It uses a wire tap to tap into the red and beige wires on the fuse board. There is a double fuse connector that plugs into one of the 10amp fuse spots and then you put that 10amp fuse into the double fuse connector.

They said no CELs, no loss of any functionality, all has been tested and verified.

I put an order in for one so I'll be the guinea pig, but just curious what everyone else thinks about this mod?

After seeing your post I ordered one as well, haha. I just got it installed, it works great, can't wait to check it out tonight when it's dark. One thing I didn't realize until today is that the DRLs don't come on until the parking brake is released. For a few minutes I thought I may have made a mistake when testing it out until I stumbled across that info. While the product is high quality I am kicking myself for not making my own after seeing how simple it is. The convenience of it is nice though.

Just installed mine today as well. Works great and was fairly easy to install. Also as far as I can tell you can remove it at anytime and get the stock appearance as it doesn't fully cut the wires with the wire t-taps. The only thing I will say is I needed to use electrical tape to keep things from coming undone and snug, but otherwise it was straight forward and definitely worth the $50 imo.

Also the color of my lights look yellowish because of my camera and the background, but in person they are much more white.
