Daytime running light module / Relay / loopback plug

I have found the plug where the DRL module plugs in. i think i have to retrofit a 1997 Aerostar to pass a Canadian inspection - is there a DRL relay up under the dash like the F150's or is it just a plug-n-play thing with the module under the hood?

i have to take that back.. there doesn't seem to be a provision for the DRL in the forward harness. is the forward harness with the DRL from a 96 swappable?

I think the light switch has to be replaced to, if I remember right. Its part of the delay and even has a rotary switch on the outside of it.

done..

switch is the same. forward harness is different. got the DRL pig tail at the pick-n-pull all the way to the main firewall block connector... took the main block apart, swapped a few wires, spliced some more.. and it worked first try.
