yep you can wire them to the parking lamps...
but then again you can also tap into an illumination wire somewhere under the dash to make things easier...
that's what I have now...
Ur right! Use a fuse tap. No splicing necessary. Just make sure you tap the correct side of the fuse. Very simple. Did it to my boys' Expedition & saved lots of time. Also to a Corolla. Works just fine.
