Yes 80stech said it clearer probably, what I was trying to say is get power for the lights from a fused line direct from battery, but with the switch powered with ignition on.

I'd prefer to get your switch power from the park light so you can only turn on those aux lights with the park lights on.

I'd be looking at wiring though as I'd be concerned with pissing off the LCM. Hopefully someone whose wired up lights like yours can chime in.
