Kirchoff's Law only applies to current sources (or when determining the split of current between two loads). In this case, the total current draw will go up by the draw of the corner light bulb - it won't reduce the draw of the turn signal bulb.

Yep I stand corrected. Been a while since I've thought about basic circuits (do mostly programming related non sense these days). Should of drank more coffee this morning and refreshed my brain on circuits before commenting.
Just got to make sure the wire is rated to handle the load (I'd venture to guess it'll be though since Toyota over engineers things).
