splicing into switchboard for driving lights

I have a rally bar with 4 fog lights attached. I wanted to used a 6 toggle switchboard in order to be able to turn on the two outside lights indepedently from the two inside lights. I know that there is the chip board inside the component. I want to hook into the toggles for the oem fogs and rear fog toggles from the wiring harness behind it. Has anyone done this before? I'm assuming that everything has been attempted on our mini's. And where can one get a 6 toggle switchboard without going to ebay (which never has 6 toggles, only 5) or to mini itself? Thanks to all for the assist.

these are all low level computer temporary contact switches in the switch bank, they can not be used as regular switches as you are wanting to do.
