The instrument panel, HVAC and centre column all light up to give quite a show...others have commented when in my car at night! Every toggle switch, dial and indicator has an associated bulb. The bad news is...your model year does not allow you to replace the bulbs in the toggle switches (same with '94). I replaced ALL my toggle switches with the newer design that allows you to replace the bulbs. They are also ergonomically better. So instead of replacing the OEM toggle switches, pay the same amount and ask for the "newer" kind, the same ones found in a '95 or '96. After you have replaced all your bulbs. Dim your instrument panel down from say 100% to 90%...you will never replace a bulb again....I havn't in years....
