Foglights are for fog. That is why they call them foglights. Only use in adverse conditions. It is the law in NSW and QLD. I assume it is everywhere else. They are a nuisance for oncoming traffic.
To get the DRLs to come on all the time, they would need to be rewired.
An auto elec would be your best option if you didn't want to DIY.

Yes it probably can be programmed to do all that but i dont think the dealer would be able to and as Shane pointed out, wouldn't due to legality etc.
Saying that you can wire your foglights directly to your lowbeams so whenever your lowbeams are on, the fogs come on.
But you dont want to be that guy driving around with every single light on

There is a very easy way to get this to work not by programming but by a physical change for less then $50. However I am not going to tell you as I really hate the "fogwits" that drive with fogs on in clear weather.

Auto electrician can fix all that.
Might have to find a shonky one if it's illegal in Victoria

wire it straight from the battery to the parkers. use a relay to have the car acc trigger the parkers so when ever the car is on the lights are on.
If you need more explanation then the above sentence, an auto electrician will be very helpful and could also sort your fog lights out.

BAM!!
If you always want the parkers on, as Glenn said, hooking up a relay to your battery and then connecting it to the ignition would mean that whenever the cars ignition is on, the parkers/DRL's will come on.
I can see why the fog lights are called 'fog lights' however whenever Im driving, am I the only person who isnt bothered by it? HID's give me more of a headache more than anything else really...
