Default Front turn signal wiring

I'd like to add LED strip lights below my smoke covered headlights. How do I wire them to only light up as turn signals, not parking lights?

Find the wiring to the T/signal. Use a test light and see which wire is hot and pulsing with the turn signal on. Hook your LED strip to this wire and ground the other wire. LED's are specific, so check it before taping it up. If it doesn't work, reverse the wires. It should now work right. Then do the other side the same way. It is very simple to do what your are attempting to do. One of the easier mods. Good luck.
