Third brake lights are designed to be eye level with the driver in the car behind you and HIGHER than the main brake lights. Turning your rear fog light into another brake light is unnecessarily redundant. You might face legal problems removing your OEM 3rd brake light as well, especially if you got in a rear end collision. The rear fog only has one purpose and is designed for only that, and it is NOT to serve as another brake light. It would be the equivalent of wiring your turn signals to stay on all the time just because you think it looks "cool".
