Issue: Monogram Headlights on FRS Base, DRL Triggering HiBeam

Anyone have experience wiring the DRL for Monogram Headlights on Base FRS? I'm doing it on my 2014, but am running into an issue: The DRL works like factory, but it also triggers the highbeam flap when in the daytime and parking mode. All other functions work normally.



I probed the wires, and found the resistor is wired in series with high beam ground (current passes from source, through the headlight [triggering the flap], exits high beam ground, and is sent to the resistor live). Then, as most guides indicate, you tap into resistor live for DRL power. However, after passing through the headlight, powering the led, and led ground, this also happens to complete the high beam circuit.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there an alternate method to get this working without triggering the HiBeam flap during the day?

For reference, I diligently followed these references, which tell you to tap into the DRL resistor.
