I'll give you a bump... That i can't help with as i don't have a dp 
or any tuner for that matter. But i think i have seen people with the TC lock mod in their signatures who run a dp. So im guessing that it wouldnt be a problem.

i have an 03, but the wires dont look to be in the same place, though when i popped the hood, the viol/yel stripped wire was pulled away from the others, but it is not in the same line up as guzzles pictures shows for the 02. looks as if the previous owner was researching to do this mod. sure hope i ground out the right wire.

first attempt, failed.
color coded wires are not the same on my 03. still looking for the correct wire, but the linky above states (There are 4 connectors underneath the brake master cylinder. 3 black ones and one grey one You want PIN-6 of the forward most GREY connector.)-----------but, he has 4 connectors, and i have 5, 3 black and 2 grey.
any one have a suggestion.

second attempt, failed, violet w/ yellow strip a no go for lock up............ maybe im on the wrong set of pins, looking around some more, im pretty much going to quit unless some one has a little more specific info.
i have found 5 connectors laying flat on the fender well under the master cylinder, and just to the side of them close to my the fire wall, i have 3 more on a post, wrapped in a bundle going to the tranny, these are the ones i have been tapping into there happeds to be 2 violet w/yellow strips on one of these 3 plugs. neither will lock up the t/c. i tapped both, cranked the truck, put in D. foot on the brake, gounded the wire in multiple places, and nothing.
any body with some insight.

noticed on guzzles pics, there is a violet w/org, and a violet w/ yel,
i cant tell which is yellow and orange on the truck, but both are violet, though one is larger than the other. does anyone know which is the T/C wire. big or small

i tried both, neither would lock the t/c,
now wondering if i dont have a good connection,
i used a nut inside the door jam, i also used the cig. lighter well, its also a grnd. so i dont know, must have not pierced the wire with the clip. will try again.
small wire= violet w/yellow strip.

yes the connector you lookinh is the fwd most one closest to the batt. the best ground i found was the panel under the steering shaft. pull the 4 plastic lock screws on the panel and you will see it. its the mount that holds the e-brake lever
