To wire them to your parking lights its the brown wire coming from your turn signal. Thats what most people are hooking in to.

Could run it to the battery as well. Then you got a seperate switch for them.

Anyone put led strips behind their grills to illuminate the openings? I met some vehicle on the highway the other night with light shining though the grill and it looked neat..not obtrusive or anything like that

I mocked mine up similarly but did amber. I only did one side to see if I like it before I cut the strips.
