I did search. I searched 'four headlight' and got two pages of nothing.

Are you sure you want all 4 on Nick??? All states I do believe, actually, Fed DOT, no more than 4 white driving lights on at a time. So it's certainly legal to have all 4 on, BUT, I like to have clear fog/driving lights on with my low beams since they tend to show up better for close vision, not to mention wide vision, like pedestrians walking in the gutter. And I'd like for the aux fog/driving lights to stay on with brights too for the close up vision, which I know new model trucks auto cancel driving/fog lights. But, if I had all 4 OEM lights on for example then I'd have to shut the aux driving lights off.

Good information to know. A little of topic, when I had my 05 Sierra I had the "all on" mod, I could run any combination of lows, highs, and fogs I wanted at anytime I wanted. I also had the DRL's stay on all the time, day and night. Of course I was respectful of other drivers and never had all six on at the same time.

edit: I also had a different bulb in the fogs that was brighter than should have been in there.

Thats why I did this mod;when driving the roads of Eastern Montana at night there is very little traffic but the deer population is at a dangerous to vehicle rate that is extremely high so,a person needs as much light out there as possible.
Hooking in the relay is a very easy task and it could even be run through a switch mounted in the cab so they could be turned off even if the brights is on.
I now have the high beams adjusted for good distance and the lows adjusted high enough to have good vision but not so high that people are signaling for Me to dim,and,that to Me,is the best of both worlds,made a heck of a lot of a difference in the night driving experiences.
