I believe these lights are the rear fog lights. So your fog light button will activate. May help in your quest.

I believe that the OP wants the bumper section tail lights and brakes lights to operational the same time as when the upper tail lights and brake lights are operating.
The bumper light section is only operational when the hatchback is open. I don't know of any VCDS settings that will give what the OP is looking for.

Yeah, you are completely true. I want all the tail and the bumper light work together regarding trunk is open or not.
