I actually like it not shifting in D since the paddles are located on the steering wheel (prefer paddles on steering column) accidental shifting can occur.
But you're right, it's a simple wiring diy and do at own risk like any other diys

This DIY is ok but there are some pretty big flaws with it regarding the wiring itself, which is also why it won't shift in D. Again... Please think about it twice before you start messing with integrated circuits and the wiring especially since a lot of this is very heavily dependant on what options you have for your vehicle.
