Does anyone know the wires that I kneed to bypass the daytime running lights or where the module is located? I don't want to turn off completely, just disable it while the remote starter is running. I need the wire coming off the output side of relay or module and not the input side of switch. I have a 2003 Trailblazer with a viper 790xv alarm/rs. Any suggestions would be appreciated. TIA

P.S. This site RULES!!!!!!!!!!!

Put the parking brake on and then try remoe starting the vehicle. The drl's should stay off. To simulate this, you just need to connect a ground when running output wire from the remote start to the parking brake wire. The parking brake wire should be easy to locate at the parking brake. You should also have either the blue (-) status output wire or blue/black (-) third ignition output wire not connected to anything on the 790XV. Connect that wire to the parking brake wire, and you should be good to go. You might need to increase the strength of the ground using a relay.
85 - ground when running
86 - constant +12v
87 - ground
30 - parking brake wire
