Nice write-up going to give this a 30 day sticky for everyone to see.

5
Please Read post #7 & #8 before proceeding on this modification! Due to information regarding wiring schematics, this mod could be dangerous. Any mods performed are at your own risk.
Objective:
This mod is intended to allow the fog lights to remain on when switching to high beams. It was performed on a 2007 model, but may work on 05 and 06 seeing as how they are all similar. There have not been any issues with this mod at this time, but if you experience one please post your issue. Tinker at your own risk.
Items Needed:
1. 12 Gauge Solid Wire
2. Wire Cutters/Strippers
3. 4 Spade Lug Crimp Terminals
4. Crimpers
Install Time:
10 Minutes
Directions:
Step 1
Locate the fuse/relay box inside the engine bay.

Step 2
Take note of the diagram on the top of the box, paying special attention to the location of RL-2 (relay 2).
Open the cover to the fuse box.

Step 3
Locate and remove relay 2 (RL-2).
It's in real snug so it helps to have something that can slide underneath the sides of the relay.

Step 4
Cut two 2" lengths of wire and strip both ends.
Crimp male terminals onto each end of both wires.

Left- the underside of relay 2 (notice it's terminals are numbered)
Center - after removing the relay, these correspond to the female terminals in the box where the wires will go
Right - relates to the center diagram (shows finished product, refer to step 5 for inserting wires)

Step 5
Connecting the wires (refer to diagram in figure 4):
>Wire 1 - insert terminals into slots 85 and 87
>Wire 2 - insert terminals into slots 87a and 30
Make sure they form snug fits and then try out the lights.

I'll try to take pictures sometime next week, when my new camera arrives. My old one recently hit the dust 
For now, I've updated my post with another way you could do it (what I actually did)
As for schematics, you might be able to ask your dealer to look at it for a few minutes. I did that once. I also had my (now dead) camera with me on that day and took some beautiful pictures (not from the schematics, of course - it was a nice sunny day outside )
You could also get a subscription for your car from alldatadiy.com (~$45 per car for 3 years). It includes tons of service manuals, schematics, and TSBs, and has helped me quite a bit.
