As stated, those are DRLs. You can't control them and they don't work as fog lights. The switch for the rear fog light, if you had one, would be on the turn signal stalk. When the rear fog light is installed aftermarket, most people install and wire them to a switch in between the two seat heater switches. That's normally for the convertible top. (You don't have one of those either, no matter what the dealer told you).

Just buy a JDM one as people have suggested and hook it up as another brake light. That's what I did, it's safer and looks cooler!
