doubt they'll do it unless they're genuine OEM fogs. the "ebay fogs" that most people get are not OEM.

pull back the plastic guard in the wheel well, cut the power wire to the parking lights and splice in an extra wire and reconnect the power wire. this extra wire you just connected, run that to the positive terminal on the relay. you can put a switch inline here also (that's what i did) so you can turn them off if you don't want them on. doing it this way will only allow the fogs to be on when the parking, low or high beams are on. to me, this is better than hard wiring straight to a constant power because if you leave the parking lights on, the warning chime reminds you to turn them off. on my old car, they were hard wired to the battery and i killed my battery more than once by forgetting to turn the fogs off.
