I am wanting to purchase aftermarket foglights for my E. I do not want to deal w/ wiring them to the switch and just figure i can wire them to be left on all the time w/ the headlights. Will just hooking up the foglights do this or do i have to do some kind of special xtra wiring?

i have seen people done this...

but it is factory set..once i turn on the headlights..the fog lights are
automatically on..so there is not fog light switch for my cl type s.

If you Install them directly to your headlights you will be drawing more amperage and your wiring harness may melt of you don't blow a fuse first.
I would figure out how much more amperage, increase the fuse rating and use thicker wires.
