Default Daylight Running Lights

I've got another Dodge newbie question. I've never had a vehicle with daylight running lights and I was wondering if the round lights in the grill are daylight running lights? If they are, how do you get them to come on? I don't find any separate switch for them anywhere and they don't come on with the headlights. Thanks for your help.

Those are Fog Lights. The outer ones are Factory, and the inner ones are aftermarket.

I knew the inner ones were aftermarket, but I didn't know the others were also foglights. Do you know how to turn them on? Is there a separate switch somewhere?

To The left of the cupholder, there are 2 switches. One should say O/D Off. The one to the right of that controls the fog lights. They only work when the headlights or park lights are on.

depending on what year you got, some are also by the headlight switch.

Not sure when they changed from the o/d button to the head light switch
