Rear fog light

So i was thinking about when i put moose lights on my car(im from alaska thats what i call them) aka driving light (hella) but ill be using a different brand. so i was wondering a few things
do they stay on all the time when you flip the switch?
do they get brighter when you hit the breaks?
could i hack up the wiring harness and modify it to hook up to some driving lights?

any input will help thx

I will give my 0.02 even though I already have the fog lights.

From the factory the fog lights only light up when the headlights or parking lights are on. When you turn the car off you have to remember to turn the fog lights back on if you want them on. They will not go back to how you left them (on or off), they default to off..

I just installed the kit from gominigo that makes the fog lights light up with the brake lights. Great kit, cool feature. When the headlights are on, the fog lights light up a little, when you hit the brake, they act as additional brake lights.

Since you are working from a clean install, you can probably set it up however you want it. You just need to find the right wire to splice into from the brake lights.

Hope this helped, at least a little!!!
