Automatic Fog Lights

I have a 2007 E63 AMG and with the automatic headlights, the fog lights do not come on. I can turn them on manually but it's a hassle and they come on with the turn signal and cornering (only the respective side) so I know it's possible. Does anyone know how to make them come on automatically when the headlights do? Maybe trick the computer to register both turn signals being on?

Or.....read the manual. If your car didn't come with a manual, it can be downloaded from MBUSA.com.

Short answer, they can't come on automatically as the car is delivered from the factory. Only do they come on during cornering, but I know that's not what you're looking for.

It can easily be wired to do so... Search and if you aren't, a competent mechanic can accomplish for you.

Please explain how it can be "easily" wired. I've thoroughly looked into this and it doesn't seem easy at all... and although I'm not a mechanic, I've done my fair share of electrical work on mercedes.
