The guide you are using is for the JDM headlights. They have 7 pins opposed to the 6 pins in the monogram headlights. The 7th pin the JDM headlights is to get the constant 12V for the LED strip (hence the tapping into the live wire from DRL resistor in source #1). If I recall properly, the base headlights have the DRL wire within the 6 pin harness (which also bypasses the resistor when high beam is activated). You should be able to just re-pin the headlight harness so the DRL is with LED strip wire of the headlight. When your e-brake is down, then it will activate the LED strip. When you turn on the headlights, the strip will disappear but low beams will be on. If you want the strip w/ the low beam, you might need to add a wire with a resistor from low beam to the DRL (engine harness side). The high beam will still be within the LED strip unfortunately as the DRL on base FRS also acts as a high beam IIRC.
Also please correct me if I am wrong about what I said.
