How can I use SynEdit with Delphi VCL Styles?

How can I use TSynEdit or TSynMemo with Delphi XE4 and apply a Delphi VCL Style? I have SynEdit installed but I can not drag & drop a TSynMemo component onto a form once I activated a VCL style in the app. Do I need to make some kind of change to the SynEdit source to allow for VCL Style to work?

I was using an older version of SynEdit. I used this version: TurboPack/SynEdit

Once I installed it, the SynEdit pallet showed up in the designer. However, I don't see it being skinned at all whereas all other standard controls are skinned.

I found solutions here and here using a TStyleHook.
