I don't suppose it'll make much of a difference in your decision, but:
the whole idea of fog lights is to have a lighting source that will penetrate (somewhat) the fog without illuminating the water vapor to the point where your field of vision is further impaired. you may have noticed that, if you turn your high beams on in thick fog, you can usually see nothing more than a wall of white fog. ...this is why, typically, factory fog lights are wired so that they turn -off- when the high beams are on.
so, wiring the fog lights so that they -only- illuminate when the high beams are on is, well... counter-productive, at best.
