Looking for a running light wire?

So I ordered snap-on fork running (white)/signal (amber) lights to replace the front blinkers on my SD1290 (link below). It comes with Drugz Turn Signal Circuits (link below) which requires a third running light wire. My thought is to tap into the LED running lights above the headlight. There are 3 wires brown, white, and white/yellow as shown in my pic. Anybody have knowledge with the wiring? Am I on the right track?

Basically, I'm looking for a running light wire in the front of the bike.

Tony,

I think it's found under the seat on the 1290. If you do a search I'm pretty sure it was discussed recently.

Yes, I am aware of that wire but I was hoping to find a 12v in the headlight assembly so I dont have to run a wire. The headlamp itself does have a 12v. I might tap into that. Every other wire I've tested come up with about 6-7 volts.
