Boxster S 2001 electrics issue causing battery drain

Hello. New to this and was wondering if anyone can help.****

I've been experiencing battery drain for sometime now. New battery put in and is good.****

What I notices is that around the sidelights/headlights/foglights switch there are small symbols which are back lit. Also the buttons for the front and back boot which sit in the door sill panel have small lights on them too. ****These lights remain on even when the car is all off and locked.****

I removed fuse C7 and this switched off the small symbol lights around the headlight switch. I think when this fuse is removed the battery drain is not occurring. However I don't know what this links to, ****in terms of why the small lights are remaining on when the fuse is left in?

Then noticed the boot button panel also was lit but don't know what fuse operates these lights?****

Anyone with knowledge of these and likely problem I'd really appreciate some help.****

Thanks, Ian****
