        Canadian Festiva have them. If I remember correctly there's a relay down by the battery and the small box on the firewall with the grille on it, about in the middle, is part of the system too. You can see what I'm talking about in this photo


        ... its right behind the adjuster on the strut bar.

        Hope that helps...

          Let me check my electrical trouble shooting manual!
          US didn't have DRL's only Canadians, but manual shows all North American options.
          I'll just edit this post if I find it!

          Got it!
          OK, if the 1993 Ford Festiva Electrical & Vacuum troubleshooting Manual is to be believed; the DRL control module is "under the I/P behind the PCM". The location of the PCM is "Mounted behind the dash, left of the steering column."

                    P.S. My Canadian '89 does not have the DRL as daytime running lights did not become manditory under the law here until some later year - that would be provincial law.
