It's  a separate switch  in the dashboard,  one of the three switches to
the  right of the tach.   It's a three position  switch: Off -- head fog
lights on -- head and tail fog lights on  (plus yellow LED in the switch
on).  I don't know the exact wattage of the bulb off the top of my head,
but it's pretty bright, brighter than the braking  lights, anyway.  If I
don't forget,  I'll  check  at home  tonight  (should  I  forget, you're
authorized to remind me once every other day :-)

Sincerely
 Rainer
