Free pin on the fuse box would be a great place to start...

One of the purple ones. This will turn your foglights on any time the key is on. I think you should also use a switch.

hook it up to your parking lights... should be a black/red on the fusebox if i'm not mistaken. then your fogs will come on when u turn your lights on. not at all times. if u knew how to use a relay i'd use the parking light wire as a trigger. it's what i did

BTW perseverance park light wires are red/black.

In that case use the white fuse output in the pic I posted (parking lights). That pic is assuming you have a DC Integra. You can find plugs for those fuse outputs in a junked Integra, under the driver's side door panel. Or you could use a female quick disconnect.

Your fogs will always be on when your parking lights or headlights are on. I still think you should use a manual switch.
