Positve 12 volts for parking lights should be a Grey/Yellow @ the headlight switch. Confirm this by TESTING the wire prior to using it, preferably with a multi-meter....or a test light. This should be the wire your looking for though

Yeah the same alarm he said he could sell me with install for 900+ can be had from Broadfield electric for like 325... and it INCLUDED the prints. I was not happy with him saying he could not sell me the alarm with the prints.
