You can also wire in the c5 coupe fog light switch. It's sold by GM parts direct.com & cheap.
It replaces the trunk switch, but also has a trunk switch. There's a button on it for the fog lights that when left on, the fog lights come on when you put on the driving lights....

of course you can wire them up so they turn on when you turn your lights on. Just put in a relay. Tap into a wire that has power when lights are on and run that to the relay as a trigger. You will need to run new wires for the fog power and what not. But at least this way you get what your after without putting strain on the rest of your system. The fogs turning on when you turn the parking or headlights on.
