equipped with DRL, a right and a left DRL relay are
each located in a dedicated connector of the vehicle
wire harness. Each connector is snapped into an
opening in a stamped sheet metal bracket which is
secured with screws within the driver side front seat
riser just beneath the seat riser cover panel.
