Default How to wire factory fogs to come on without headlights????

Anyone know how to do it? I thought I saw a thread on here a while back but I've searched and can't find it. Might have seen it somewhere else.

I used the factory switch and everything, I just want them to come on without the headlights having to be on. And I believe they currently kick off with the high beams, is there way to keep them on with the high beams?

Thanks in advance.

I've never dealt with Honda fog lights and their wiring. they way you explained it, it seems that the lowbeams are the remote wire for tuning on the fogs. then when you go to high beams the low beams would go off and highbeams come on. therefore turning off your fogs at the same time. What you would do is find where the wire is and hook it up to your parking lights and they will come on when you have only the parking lights on. Now they work with the parking lights and not the head lights.

Yeah, I might just go do some testing with a light and do that. I'm pretty good with electrical but thought I saw a thread the other day with wire diagrams and such. Was hoping someone else had seen it or something.
