sounds like a wiring issue. Generally, the foglight relay is switched on by the headlights, meaning that they will not work without the headlights. I'm actually going to wire my fogs to function independently.

OEM fogs have their own switch, but like you said the relay is tripped by the head lights

I suggest you do some research on the $30,000 car that you own and figure out how stuff like this works...

The DRLs are only on when your headlights are OFF and the parking brake is disengaged. Yes, it is possible to turn your "halos" on and have the DRLs on. You turn your headlight switch to the 3rd option (1-off, 2-auto, 3-awesomelookingsetting, 4-on).

I knew all of this before I ever even drove my BRZ.
