Did these lights come with a harness and a relay? If so, I would grab the repair plug that connects to the GPS power feed by the steering head, send the +12V from there through a switch to turn the lights on and off, then out of that switch to the ACC wire.
This will let you leave the lights turned on but they will power off automatically when the key is switched off.
