if you have the manual to your alarm you can find out which wire on the brain it is and just use that one so you dont have to find all of them.

On mine it is the #19 fuse and I believe it is a white/red wire coming out the back of the fuse block. Check the fuse block to confirm.

Not shove a wire in, but find the wire that goes to that specific fuse (since the parking and running lights are on the same fuse) and then splice the wire into it.
