   Wired to the parking lights they will be on with parking lights, no
matter if your headlights are on or not.

   Why dont you want them on with your headlights?  They will hardly be
noticable over your lowbeams.  If you want to turn them off with the
headlights you can wire some circuitry in there to do so, or you can
simply do a switch.

   Nope, 4-8 watters is what you would be using (I'd think), which draws
hardly anything.  So far I seem to be the only person to wire their city
lights to the backup light circuit.  They are on whenever the car is
running (basically DRLs but mine are green).  Not noticable during the
day, automatically on at dusk (looks sweet), not noticable over the
headlights at night.
