Tapping into parking/DRL lights

[Tents+Tread]

Have some backlights on my LP9s and am looking at tapping the DRL for that as they draw basically nothing. Anyone done this yet and know where the wire runs is etc?

Did you ever find out which wire to tap? I’m wiring up my LP9’s tomorrow.

Can’t say I did!

Great! If I don’t find something early tomorrow they are all going to upfitter switches, screw it.

The diagrams above are for parking lights. I can snap a pic of the diagram for DRL. Was just thinking parking lamps was a more desirable method to connect backlights.

My arms look like I held a litter of kittens all week long. Some tight spaces to get through….

I just went ahead and wired everything to upfitters for now. I would like to wire the back lights to the parking lights in the near future.

Would you have a diagram of the drl feed @ the c203 connector or do they not run through there? I have a light bar with drl feature that I only want in with the drl’s. With the winch mount it’s a pain in the rear to get my grill off.

The above pics should be what you need.

Thank you. I’ll get out and verify this helps a ton.

So it looks like the passenger DRL wire should be violet and white, correct?
