Been searching for the button to turn them on, until I found there aren't any!!

Has Porsche configured the headlights to act as fog lights would do?

You just turn the dial next to the steering wheel - one click to the right. Turns the back led strip on plus the fog lights..

I found that for the rear, it was the fronts that I couldn't figure out.

Isn't the rear LED strip on all the time?

Since the arrival of LED headlights, fog lights were deemed unnecessary.

I think basically the front 'fog lights' are very clever automatic ones as described as 'adverse weather function' in the standard spec under;

Lights and vision
LED main headlights in black with Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS)
Dynamic cornering lights, speed-sensitive headlight range control, adverse weather function, dynamic range control and four-point LED daytime running lights


So you'll have to find somewhere foggy to see if they work I guess?!?!?!?

When I was growing up we used to say that it took a driver until he was thirty to learn how to turn off the fog lights :lol: . If you walk to the front of the car and look at it you might notice that there's something missing that used to be there on your earlier car (dons steel helmet and retires to bunker :D )
