You bought fog lights without checking for the harness or the switch first?
Just wire in the fog lights to your headlight harness for power. They'll just come on with the headlights all the time.

Mine are wired that way.
Drove my neon until it was killed in a flood.

I wouldn't run it directly to the headlight power, but use a relay so you aren't adding additional current through the MFS connector.

1) buy a MFS with fog light switch
2) buy harness that connects at core support and pig tails to both fog lights
3) install fog lights
4) Enjoy said foglights

Hahahaa ^^^ yay! "Electrical Elitist" my ass.
You can manually wire them to their own toggle / interrupting switch, or wire them up through a (home made) harness and pick a fuse source (headlights, most likely).
