Thanks a ton guys!
GettinThere- If you can get me some more details on how you did this I would greatly appreciate it.
This info is for my car, I don't know for sure if it will work for yours. In the power distribution (fuse) box under the hood, there are five relays. According to my owners manual, relay 5 is for fog lamps. Pull out relay 5.
Look at the prongs on the relay, with prong 87 at the bottom, prong 86 to the right, prong 85 to the left, and prong 30 at the top. There is an unnumbered prong left of prong 30, this is the prong to cut. I used a Dremel and cut it flush with the base of the plastic relay.

I used method one. Easily done, fogs are on anytime your lights are (parking, low, or high beam). Best part, easy to reverse, not permanent.
When you did this the fog lights stay on at all times the parking, highs, and low beams are on. Correct?
In most states, that is illegal. That is why they make the fogs go out when you hit the high beams.

Talk about a stupid law, you cant have your high beams on when in traffic but its ok to have the fogs and lows on in traffic. How would the fogs and high beams be an issue when there are no cars in front of you.
At least upgrade to diamond clear fog lights
I have an '03 GT and used an alternate method (though the "cut the pin off the relay" method should also work OK if you have cut the proper pin). It has worked perfectly for 5 years.
The advantage of my method is you can easily restore factory operation if ever necessary, just by plugging the original relay back in.
I've described the mod in this pdf file: http://members.cox.net/n0v8or/fogs_with_hi-beams.pdf
This is identical to what 2badstangs suggested in the previous post.
