Question Wiring (best) for running lights

Hi guys. I am changing my front turn signals to LED flush mount turn signals with running lights. Stock wiring for turn signals have two wires. The running lights kit has three incoming and two outputs that goes to flush mount LED. In order for the running lights to work the third wire needs to be connected to a steady 12V+ source. Easier said than done – instructions say just tap to the headlight or taillight source. I also bought a 12V tester…. I don’t really want to rip the clean and secure wiring to hunt for the correct wire(s). Does anyone know or can advise which wire is best to tap into for the running lights? If anyone knows the color and exact location that would be swell so I don’t have to snip unnecessary wiring.--- thanks guys! - LG

no clue about the wiring, but can I ask what flush mounts you are using?

go to your auto parts place and get an "add a circuit" fuse holder. this will allow you to replace your running light fuse with the new one that will have a wire to get power from the circuit. all you will have to do is extend your wires all the way to the fuse panel. this will also give you switched power at the lights. also the cover will not fit over the new fuse holder.i power my grip heaters this way and have not had any problems yet.
