Can you request the dealer to install them different, so they can be turned on seperate? Wouldn't that be best for fog?

May be best for vision, but not for the roadway laws. I would leave the lights as they are in order to avoid legal issues. If in doubt, just slow down.

I'm not interested in driving faster in fog, just having better vision in fog. Why would there be a law against turning on the fog lights separate? (I'm also not interested in impairing others' vision, I'm just not aware of any harm.) Thanks for your information. Happy New Year!
