Its safe to wire them to your parking lights, Just solder heat shrink. Or Wire them to your low beams so they go off when you switch to high beams, Ive always liked that set up. Ive got mine to a separate switch.

Update it when you finish if you decide to wire them to your low beams, Ive wanted to do that for awhile now.
