Taka,
you prolly need to get the front fog switch off an UrS6. They match the
200 switches in look and feel.
In the UrS6 (and in the A4 for that matter) the front fogs turn on the
rear fogs (and their respective switch) automatically, whereas the rear
fogs can work alone.
Keep in mind that those switches are electronic, i.e. they do not latch.
The latching is done by the light controller. They are of the push-ON,
push-OFF type.

Naah, too much trouble. If I were doing this project I would slap
together some kind of a latching circuit and fed all 4 fogs off the same
switch.
