Default Fogs and Aux lights on with brights

So since my headlights and LED fogs are so bright I only really use my brights offroad or when i REALLY need to brighten someones day. Problem is when i use them, it cuts my fogs and actually hurts my light output down low and to the sides.

What I want to do, is wire my Aux A Pillar lights and my Fogs to both come on any time my brights are on. I'm sure this is possible and I'm capable of doing wiring, I'm just not sure how to go about it.

Buy a superchips it can reprogram the computer so your fogs stay on with high beam

Depending on what state you're in, if you have an annual safety inspection, they check to see if aux and fog lights do go out when the headlights are in high beam. I had aftermarket bumper mount lights on my old Cherokee and they failed me until I came back to show they were wired into my fog circuit and would shut off when the highs were on.
