You will need to put a relay in there to actually control the lights, but a fog light switch will be fine to go in the panel for overall control.

You really should have a relay for each set of lights you want to control independantly.

Are you wanting to put the switch in to control existing lights, or to add extra ones ?

If it is the former, then your existing relay will be fine, you don't need to add anything extra.  If you are adding new lights, then you ought to put in another relay so you can switch them independantly.

All done right so for relays on both sets off lights.
