does anyone have this set of LED DRL/signal lights? It only comes with 2 set of wires or connection point. I know 1 is for the turn signal & the other socket is for the fog light. Where does the stock parking light(wedge bulb) plug into?? Found this set on ebay with smoked housing which I prefer instead of the chrome which everyone have.

Looks like both the fog light and parking light are connected to a single socket. There are two red wires (power) coming from that socket on the right. Same thing for the black wires (ground).

You could cut one red/black pair loose and wire directly to the parking wires in the car. I'd look to get a male end wedge connector with a pigtail and splice it into the light assembly instead of cutting up the car side of the wire harness though. Or find a different light assembly with three independent lights.

that's what I'm thinking of doing if I decide to get it. No one seems to have the smoked version with the 3 wires set.
