Okay, you'd wire it in parallel, meaning it's seperate. You'd have four wires. Two for the EL and two for the LED.
Just like a Luxeon put a resistor and switch in between the positive wire from the battery to the LED. You figure out which resistor you'll need from an online resistor calculator.
The DPDT (double pull double throw) switch is the part where you'd have to pay attention. There will be 6 poles on it.
If poles are:
1,4
2,5
3,6
You put the two wires you have for the LED (positive wire that's been spliced for resistor and switch) on poles 1 and 2. The EL switch wires would go on poles 4 and 5. Poles 3 and 6 are left empty. You could do other combos too, but you must leave a pole open on each side and not the center one.
Now when you press the button on the DPDT it will turn on the LED and the inverter.[]
