Installing Strobes in the Blackout lights

Hey guys, I'm an EMT in the Northeast and I'm thinking about replacing the 4 blackouts in the bumpers of my M1009 with blue EMS strobe LEDs. I'd like to use the blackout switches to run the LEDs, but I know they also control the headlights. What's the best way to go about it? Also, which switch controls the round hooded light in the Grill?

Assuming you are knowledgable about automotive wiring, it should be quite easy. First get the wiring diagrams from the appropriate TM and see how its wired. As for the lamp in the grille, left toglw switch, comes on with the blackout lamps in the bumper.
