Default Fog Lights on with parking lights?

I just installed my fog lights for my 2011 Insight. I was wondering if anyone has done an install so that the fog lights can be turned on with only parking lights on. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!!!

Not possible unless you do some mods with the wiring/harness. Most OEM Fog Light requires you to turn on your headlight to be able to turn on the fog light.

From what I read on most of the forums, you need to either to ground a lead or power it through the accessory fuse. Regardless they draw more than the drls. I have my fogs as hid and a cig plug with switch so I can run them without the heads on. Some foggy roads I do run with parking and fogs only at about 15mpoh as all you can really see is the edge of the road.
