Default Having troubling wiring parking lights to the alarm

I have a 96 teg (as my name says lol) that had an alarm that was going bad.

So I ripped out the old one, and put in a new one, everything works except I don't have the parking lights blink when I hit the button.

The old alarm did have access to the parking lights, but I have no idea how. I used the old wires for the most part, and all that is left is a gray wire that runs from one of the power sockets in the fusebox thing. The green plug that I read has the parking light switch wasn't tapped at all that I could see.

The previous alarm's white wire was the door trigger I think, and the current alarm has 2 white wires. 1 with a fuse that is suppose to go to constant 12v and another one that is supposed to go to the switch. Or it could go fuse to the switch and plain white to ground.

What am I missing here? I'd like to get the parking lights wired in, but if not I suppose thats ok...

Parking lights is red with black stripe. Test with a multi meter. Can be found in the fuse box pin or in most harnesses.

How do i wire it up? Fused white to the switch, regular white to ground?

Or regular white to switch, fused white to constant 12v?

Take it a reputable car audio shop or person who knows how to install alarms. If not, expect problems.
