You can tie into the tag light if it is easier for you is really doesn't matter as long as the + wire going to the fog light has power when the parking lights and headlight are on.

Good luck

so what size wire? there is a bunch of colors in the tail light wires, I am assuming I just use the red to red and black to black right?

If you are talking about the tag wires then yes Red to + of fog light and Black to - of fog light as far as size 12-18 ga. same as the tag wires and you should be good to go.

so I did what you said and ran a wire to connect black to black and red to red from the fog light to the left rear tail light. The light comes on but it will not come on when my lights are set to auto. Is this right? I was hoping they would stay on with my lights on auto..
