Talking Footwell light

Hi everyone! I just read the thread on the mysterious light bulb. This reminded me of a question I never asked, because I thought it was nothing of importance but now I´m wondering.

When I drive by night in my C2 and my driving lights are on, I have a glooming light comming from under the dasch, illuminating my footwell, while driving. I believed it was normal but now?

Anyone an Idea, if this is normal?

bye to everyone THOMAS <img src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" border="0" alt="[bigbye]" />

Hi,
Where is the lighter on LHD cars? I get this on my passenger side and is definitely from my lighter bulb. Even if it's not that, it's probably the same kind of think - basically a dash bulb that is "leaking" light into the footwell.

I saw something similar in a friend's C4 cabrio, as Dave mentions, it was the lighter's lightbulb which had come undone and was shining where it shouldn't have.

Normally the standard 964s don't have any footwell lighting that I can think of.
