I'm installing my TTT's this weekend and this whole running light wiring issue still has me bugged. Seems like a better solution is out there somewhere.

The old TTT instructions have you wire in the running lights into the headlight switch, causing you to tear apart the dash -- and that solution causes the lights to dim with the dash lights (according to members who have done this). The new, updated instructions point to a black box down near the drivers feet (which at least saves you needing to tear apart the dash), but apparently the running lights turn on with the ignition and cannot be turned off unless the truck is turned off.

Any experts know how I could turn them on with the parking/head lights?

I installed my TTT's last weekend, and hooked the running lights up to the yellow wire in the fuse/breaker panel down by the foot brake. It's easy to get at there, and they do stay on whenever the ignition is on. But that's not a problem as far as I'm concerned. You can't see the lights from inside the cab, and since they are LED's they will probably never burn out. The TTT's are great !!!!!
