I've replaced my original indicator bulbs with combined DRL / indicators. The DRLs are on with the ignition in position 1 and switch off when the indicators come on (the opposite DRL stays on) both go out with the hazards on. The DRLs go out with dipped and full headlights but stay on with side lights. I believe that this is all legit and will not result in a fail.

So Yes it would be a fail, our VOSA guy told me a few days ago that they are going to get tough on conversions.
Hope that helps
