projectors in...halos arent working right

i have 3 fairly easy questions.
where do you wire up the halos. i want them to come on with the parking lights. i have them wired to the corner lights but they only come on when the blinker is on. they wont come on with the parking lights. ive also noticed they wont come on when the headlights or parking lights are on even though the blinker is on. there is 3 wires going to the corner light, i have 2 on the halos so im guessing i should splice into the other power wire so they will come on when the parking lights are on.
the bulb size for the stock fog lights is 881. can you use the 880 or 882 in there? the only difference is that those are like 50 watts as opposed to 27. will they be brighter? if so then ill just get those.
it seems like the projectors are wired backwards with the high and low beam. when the low beam is on the inside lights are lit up then the high beam is on the outside light come on. is this right. it doesnt seem like it but theres only one way for the plug to plug in so i know thats wired right.

i have my halos hooked up to the power wire on the front turn signal....they come on when the parking lights and headlights are on....
as for the headlights, if they are like mine then you can just swither the plugs around and make the inners and outters switched.....but you should be able to tell which ones are brighter...
now for the fog lights...i have been asked this question before....
you might be able to use the higher watt bulbs, butif they are a higher amperage, then you can blow the fuse of melt the wires.....also, higher wattage lights give off more heat...im not positive if the fog light housings can hold up to alot of heat or not....
the way i look at it, those wattage bulbs were used for a reason......

ok. ill just stick with the 881s then. my halos are also spliced into the front turn signal thing but they only come on when the blinker is on. im guessing i just have to use the other power wire insted of the one im using now. and my projectors are like yours but are you sure i can just simply flip the plug around for it to work? i thought that the plug was shaped for only one way and the clip is only on one side.
