Do a search for the DRL delete mod. It makes it so that you have full control at the switch so they headlights aren't automatic.

From there you can figure out what wire from the headlights feeds power to the foglight switch and hook it to a pink wire (ignition power) instead...

There is a mod where you use a "U" shaped paper clip and plug it into the light sensor under the dash. This is what I have done.

Fog lights can't turn on until you have at least the parking lights on. You can leave the headlights off though.

I tend to run parking+fogs when it is dusk out.

if its not dark out and your headlights havent turned on automatically, i know you can turn the light switch to the left of the steering wheel to the middle option which turns on the dash lights in the car, and then you can flip the fog light switch on.
