Fog lights on an accord.

Fog lights on an accord.
I live out in the country and frequently, i find the need for extra lights on my car to assist in visibility as well as lights for working at night.
I want to hook up some LED strips on the front bumper of my Accord and control them with a toggle switch. I want it so that i can switch them on and off and they act independently from the main headlights.
Should i
A. Tap into a pre existing circuit and if so which one?
B. Add a new circuit to the in-console fuse box and if so how would i do that?

Are you talking about lights for actual FOG driving? What makes fog-lights is the beam shape, so just putting strips of LEDs isn't gonna give you that.
Aside from the beam-shape of fog lights, LEDs should use a pretty small amount of power, so it almost doesn't matter which way you choose to wire them up.

Just me.....check the under hood fuse box.....see if #10 has power on one side. Then as I read, the underdash...#1, #12, #13, #17, #29, #31 and #33 seem to be open....check them for voltage with key on and off.
From there a simple switch and a few wires and done......
