This must have been a mid-year '96 change as my '96 doesn't have it either. It sounds like a good mod but my key light does the job well enough for me.

I never even paid attention that there WAS a light there on the C4S. Then maybe 6-8 months ago, after five years of ownership, it started working. And it works without fail now.

OK, call me crazy (or I'm missing somehting here), but I simply insert the key into the ignition before I close the door.

BTW I don't even know if I have this light--I'll have to check!!

Yup, you're crazy. It adds at least 5 HP having your ignition key slot lighted, just think of all that speed you're leaving on the table!

Don't you know we have to have every little feature working on our cars, and if it is working we'll modify it still!

Waiting for someone to put a colored bulb in there to match their car's exterior....
