Default wiring fog lights to headlight warning buzzer?

i installed my depo fogs 2 days ago, and theyre great. I drive with them on during the day, but i forget to turn them off when i shut off my car. I know when i keep my headlights on and i turn off my car, there is a warning and it beeps. How can i tap my foglights into this buzzer?

hang a hammer on the side of your door so when you step out of your car your reminded how quick we forget and how bad it can hurt

the haynes manual should give a wiring schematic, just find the logic chip where the headlight switch runs into, then splice the foglight switch into that as well. If you want to get really creative you can make your own but maybe thats not worth some peoples time lol

Wouldnt it be easier to just run the power for the fog lights into an ignition controlled 12v feed so whether or not the switch is on or off, the lights will be off when you take out the key. and itd probably be a good idea to use a basic automotive 12v relay so your not drawing too much power through your fused connection.

you can do that too, but you won't get the neat beeping lol that the OP wanted. Either way i guess as long as the lights aren't left on its a benefit
