Ernie, it might be just the base model that the lights were deleted. I know someone pointed out that the door switches, rear window switches on the floor console and possibly others were deleted.

In my 2005 Limited, the dash-mounted rear window switches do not light up. Don't know if these did in previous models. I don't think the floor-mounted ones light up either, but I don't really look back there much.

I bought a Haynes Auto Repair book on the Cruiser, and it details all the steps, in a roundabout way. If you want, email me and I will give you the details on how to do it, what not to do and some of the tricks I learned doing it twice. I will attach a couple of pictures that show what the car looks like as you get it torn down. I looks much harder than it really is, so don't get worried about doing it. Also DON"T forget to test all the lamps when you put the instrument cluster back in INCLUDING the highbeam indicator - see my other posts about this. (obviously I forgot to check the highbeam lamp, thus I did it twice) Oh also, don't leave the instrument cluster upside down for over 1/2 hour after you have removed it from the car.

Hello,

Thanks
