Question about fog light wiring

Ive bought OEM fogs and was looking at the diagrams and noticed that the fogs will only come on if you have your low beams on..is there any way to keep them on when you have your high beams on, or just turn on the fog on by themselves ? Thanks

get the oem foglight switch that lets you turn the fogs on while the lights are on. or ditch the supplied wiring and wire it up yourself using the toggle switch of your choice. i have mine on a toggle switch by themselves.

Do you have a part number, and are you sure it will fit ? I have a 02 Ex, there is nothing you can do with the actual switch they give you ?

i would just wire them up to the battery and a toggle switch and be done with it. is the switch they gave you just a regular on/off toggle?

its just one wire you cut and change. i did a diy, see if you can find it lol. its basically testing and finding which wire gets hot only when the headlights are on. you cut this wire, then take the side going from the switch and tap it to the 12v socket. that way the switch will work whenever key is in the acc position (in case you forget to turn em off, they will shut off when you remove the key). i cant tell you which wire, you just need to find a test light or bulb and try each wire. for my 02 sedan oem kit, it was the blue wire.
