Running foglights with Auto headlight sensor?

like allot of other people with a 5th gen I have the foglights wired so i can run without the headlight on, i was wondering can i wire it so once it gets dark and the light sensor reads its dark it will turn on my headlights without me having to switch it manually? is this possible has it been done before?

Do your parking lights have to be on for ur fogs to work? If so then u need to independently ground ur fogs. When i say independently ground i mean the gound for both of them can be together. Then u can leave the headlights to auto and run ur fogs no matter what position the switch is in. These cars are wired to be confusing and i havent figuresd out why.
