    Question, I want to wire my 3 raptor style lights to the parking lights (running lights) not to dtrl or the headlights. But I want them to stay on when the headlights are on of course. Can this be done? Thanks in advance.

    Tap both the headlight and parking light wires with a diode on each tap(prevents headlights from trying to draw power through parking light wires and vice versa). Tie them both to the raptors.

    Welcome! I had the same question a while back, and ended up just tapping into the fuse box. Running4tacos has a good YouTube video on how to do it.
