You Need to use a relay. Basically you wire the fogs up to the battery and put the relay in the curcuit as the switch. You then need the relay switching wire (possitive) to go to the possitive of one of the side lights, then you put another switch in between the sidelight wire and the relay so that they dont always come on with sides, but they can't come on without! man thats confused me!!
I'll draw a diagram...

If you take the back off the headlight and find the sidelight bulb there will only be 2 wires going into it - Just connect it to te positive one - you may needs a multimeter to find out which is which if noone on here knows. sorry i cant be more help!
