I wired my fog lights on my 86' Cabriolet to come on when the ignition is turned on. I installed a jumper wire (green color) using fuse #7 (25 AMP) on fuse/relay panel #1 as a power source to fuse #8 (fog lights) on fuse/relay panel #2. As per the attached wire diagram, fuse #8 on panel #2 only triggers the fog light relay, so it carries a very low load.
I also installed a simple on/off toggle switch so I can turn the jumper wire off in case I have to work on the car with the ignition on. I hope this helps. The wire diagram for this purpose should be the same all the way up to '89 models.
