Default Rear fog lights anyone?

I saw some pics of the A4 sedan with the LED tail clusters, and I noticed there doesn't seem to be any rear fog lights. Are these only on Avants?

I've got a button for them on mine, although i'm not 100% certain which part lights up... I think it's the part inside the LED loop. I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow.

I have no idea how the rear fogs work no LED-equipped tails. But on incandescent sedans, the rear fog is the inner most bulb on the top row (it just gets brighter). On the Avant's incandescent tail, the rear fog is in the lower innermost portion of the lens, beside the reverse light. It's actually a separate bulb, illuminating a completely different part of the lens.

So maybe the rear fogs on LED sedan tails just light up brighter (like the brake lights)?

What happens when you push the rear fog button on the dash?

2010 sedan, there is a small opening right in the middle of the cluster of LEDs and when you push that a different bulb comes on. Pretty bright might I add.

Made up a little picture. I know it's an S4... but tail lights are virtually the same.

This is the avant for comparison.
