Default daytime running light resistor? uhh

so, as my motor is out, ive been trying to clean my bay and tuck my headlight harnesses.
tonight i noticed a decent sized box underneath a bracket tucked in the corner beside my clutch master cylinder.
i looked at some wiring diagrams and it shows it being a "daytime running light resistor".
anyone who has tucked their wires, what did you do with this? do you tuck it aswell in the fender, or do you get rid of this? im confused because it is huge and im not sure if the lights will work without it?
any and all help/tips will be great. im stomped

DRL won't work if you remove the resistors.

yes they are and sometimes removing the drl module does funny stuff like no right h/b and overly bright ds or just no lights
