I got my Diode Dynamics Elite Series Add-On LED Fog Light Kit installed and was amazed at the quality, but I was disappointed that the fog lights stay on when the bright lites go on. It was advertised that they would go off when brights come on. I called the company and they said sorry, that's the way they are because the Bright lights are controlled by a module inside the headlights rather than the wire directly from the bright light switch. Oh well.

Yes, you can see the lights in upper headlight is luminated = lariat.
Also to OP yes i have same install with lariat. you can run the highbeams and foglights at the same time. I installed my included switch by drilling out a hole/shaving on empty right side of the lights controls switch. ( didnt get it pointing directly up though, oh well)

The OP wants the fogs to shut off with high beams.

He can probably do that f-150 light control module with the forscan and dash lighting up/repinning stuff, that would probably achieve his desired results.

That would be a good option. I just have mine on all the time even with brights. I didn't even use the switch because that space at the light switch is where my bass knob is.

That looks so good, like it should come as a factory option. Can't wait to get mine.

I hit a deer because the head lights suck, do these fog lights improve visibility?

I just got them on, and haven't had a chance to drive it at night yet.

That looks great! Did you have to recalibrate the front radar after removing the bumper?

I have this set installed and they do light up the ditches better than the headlights alone. I aimed them so their beam is slightly beneath the headlight beam, both to avoid blinding other drivers and it seems to light the ditches better.
