Fog lights

How would you go about wiring the fog lights to come on at any time. I personally love the look of just the parking lights and the fog lights.

you got a link dude?
and does it basically have straight forward instructions?
people be saying that they could just get some stuff in auto zone,
but i wouldn't know where to place the wires and whatnot.

no i don't have a link but its pretty self explanitory. the insdtructions tell you where all the wires should be hooked up. as for where you place them, well thats up to you. i kept mine along the original wire looms and tucked the rest away. if your gonna but wires to do this, it would be easier to buy a pre wired kit.

It does, and I have the lights, but normally the fog lights dont come on unless the headlights are on and on the low setting. I just wanted to wire them so that they could come on whenever I flipped the switch. Plus, the fog lights arent working at the moment, so I figured when I rewired them I would just go ahead and set it up to work this way.
