Default jdm eg lights (city lights)

i jus ordered these. password jdm.com says that they sell a wiring harness for the city lights. my question is how do i get this to work so that when my corners r on, my city lights turn on too. Whats the proper way to wire my lights for this?

Wire them into the power and ground for your parking lights.

you can ghetto rig it if you want, or you can get some solder and heat shrink tube and connect it properly onto your parking lights

No need to.
go to homedepot and get these "t-tap" connectors or "tap connectors" for 18-22ga.
No need to solder with those while tapping the citybulb wires onto the parking light wires.
Should take you about 15 mins per side to do it if you take your sweet time. Remember, anything that resembles brown or black will be negative/ground.

This is what I loved about the TYC headlights (non-projector). They came with these adapters that you replace the connector from the corner lights and you would plug in your 194 bulb and it was a clean wiring to light up the city light socket.
