Fogs w/o switch?

I recently purchased a 2001 Acura Cl type s and it comes with the lower lights on the bumper which i presume are the fog lights, but inside on the dash there is no button or switch to turn them on. I looked under the hood at the fuse box and on the label it doesn't even say fogs. I bought the car used at a used car dealership and they couldn't figure it out. There are bulbs in the lights. Are they just running lights or just for looks? thanks

This is really easy. I suggest you read the FAQ. Or search. Easy answer... there's no switch.

Just for looks, they turn on with your headlights. The technical name for them is road lamps since they are not true fogs.

I think the factory forgot to put the switch in your car.
