    Do not ad 110 watts (about 20 amps) to an existing circut...it would almost certainly blow the fuse. And don't just up the fuse...you will at the very least, melt the wiring and possibly start a fire.

    You need to relay the lights. Heres a schematic I made for my lights on my Dodge truck. Tapping the source from the parking light circuit mean the lights will only come on if you parking lights are on, and will go off with them as well. I tapped my driving light from a high-beam tap with no switch, but you could switch them from the parking lights as well.

    And remember to keep all the high amp stuff in front of the firewall...only the switch should be in the cab.

    Good luck.
