headlight light knob

So Pelican has the Eruo light level adjustment switch but what else do you need to make it work? Electric servo motors in the headlight housing? I know kind of a dumb question.

Why in gods name would you want this lit up?? Dont you know where your headlight switch is?? Try this - put your hand down near where the key is - grab **** and turn
Who wants more light shining inside their car?? I know someone will say well its how it was built but anytime I can decrease the lights inside except for the ones that are telling me something useful, i would do it

An interesting question. I don't like bright lights glaring at me from the dash as it distracts. I drove my Targa around for 4 years without that switch/bulb illuminated and I never had a problem laying my hand on it. Course, now this thread has illuminated me to it's presence I had to do the fix :-)
With the bulb in and driving at night it doesn't glare as it's actually quite dim and the steering wheel obscures it anyway. On balance I prefer the bulb working as it looks neat, more cosmetic than functional from my perspective. Oh and yes, I like things to work like they did when the car came out of the factory, I hate it when stuff is not maintained.

Although I do wish my key illuminator light was still working. That light goes off when its job is done. I enjoyed it while it lasted...

Hahaha, I can't believe I missed this thread! Thanks CADguy for directing it to me. I killed the bulb last fall when I was at a gas station and carelessly reached for the light switch and pulled the **** completely off, thinking it was the gas door release ****. Yeah, I know, I felt REALLY stupid.
I'm gonna make this my winter project for my car. Wish me luck. I hope I don't have to take it to the dealership...jk

And what's with the door lock switch illuminating red when the doors are locked? Wouldn't it make more sense being lite when the doors are unlocked as a warning and a reminder to lock them? I wonder what it would take to reverse this?

I think it intended more as a deterrent for would be thieves, letting them know the car is alarmed. Same with BMW's, Infinity's ect.

Jeez, don't think I ever noticed it. Now something else for me to worry about. The light on my light switch wasn't working, I knew it should be but didn't mess with it. After this thread I decided I should replace the bulb. Replaced the bulb and it still doesn't work, Now I have to look into the lock switch light too? I'm never going to get around to replacing the flywheel.

I wouldn't feel too stupid, some cars turn on the lights with a pull switch, just not a 993
Just remember, take the bulb out and bring it with you to the auto parts store to make sure you get the correct replacement (it's 1.2W).
Good luck

I wonder if I could retrofit that?
Ed, is it hard to replace the bulb in yours? Just curious why you haven't fixed it...

But the light stopped working when I put the **** back on, and it has been intermittent ever since. And okay, maybe I should say that I feel careless, since in a rush, I reached for the wrong **** without looking or feeling where I was placing my hand.
