Hmm the only option would be to power them from the parking lights instead but this would have them off with the parking lights off.

I've seen it done with the GTR's, it's very possible to do it but a wiring diagram will be necessary for the 13' lights.

Just wire them to an ignition "hot". That's what I did with my landing strip LEDs. Anytime the ignition is on....the LEDs are on. I ran the + from the LEDs to the fuse box in the drivers side footwell area.
