Default Adding a power switch to parking lights

Hey I recently ordered some green LEDs for my parking lights 168 and was wondering has anyone added another switch besides the OEM one to the parking lights? I would like to be able to turn on my green parking lights on at night parked or at LED shows? I would imagine there's some wiring involved. If someone would shed some light on this that would be awesome.

You will not be able to notice the LEDs with the headlamps on.

if you only want the LEDs to shine from the city lights, just turn on the city lights without turning on the headlights.

Unless you are wondering how to only turn on the front city lights without the rest of them lighting up?

Need clarity on your question.

I want to just have my city lights on when I want them on....so controlling them with a switch. VLED's bulbs are SUPER bright you can definitely notice green city light LOL...if my city light turned off when my headlights are on that be great....like independent city lights

If my city lights would turn off when you switch to the head lights that would be great...or if not....applying a switch to turn the off while my head lights are on...that would give me a independent city lights yeah? Oh and VLED's bulbs are HELLA bright...you can clearly see green with my 6k HIDs on. Lol...hope that cleared up some. Thanks
