headlight / driving light modification help
So I removed my stock bumper with the driving lights for an aftermarket bumper that does not have driving lights. I want to be able to use the control on the steering column to control a set of hella black magic 500's and I want to get some ideas on how to best go about this. The stock control lets you run the driving lights while you have your low beams on but shuts them off when you switch to your highs. Is there a way to reverse it so that the come on with your high beams instead or is there a way to use the control to just turn them on regardless of high or low beam? The second option is probably the one I would rather have. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Because the lights are computer controlled I don't think its possible for the fogs to be on with hi beams through the factory fog switch , SO i did mine like this .The lights on top my bumper turn on with high beam or a switch on dash , the fogs in the bumper are on/off with the factory fog switch .

I have my Hella hids triggered through a relay with my high beam but also on a switch. My 100w hella fogs are triggered through a relay on my stock fog lights again through a switch.
All my lighting is controlled on my factory a switch.
