Hi all,
If I may i have 2 questions. Firstly, the defrost (rear fan heater) lights up when pressed, but is the actual switch meant to be lit up (normal white switch light) at night when the headlamps are on, even if it is not in use? Aslo, on the electric roof switch, one side is blown (I guess there are 2 bulbs in there), are the bulbs inside the switches able to be replaced, and if so, what wattage?
cheers
Steve

Switch lights up at reduced brightness when lights are on.
Bulbs in switch aren't intended to be replaceable, but can be if you're any good at messing around with fiddly little bits. https://cpc.farnell.com/sli-ebt/7219-00 ... dp/SC00339 are the ones I've used, I think.
Keep the switch buttons pointing upwards when you take it apart, and you won't end up with the internals all over the floor.
