    Dumb question time...everything else in the damn thing is lit up like a chirstmas tree...for the exception of the switch to engage four wheel drive. Did someone just forget to hook mine up, or is this normal?

    I see that there's a mod to put light behind it, but it sounds like the mod is if you want different colour lights...mine simply has none.

    Ok...thought so. I guess on the one hand "yay" I didn't get a queer truck...but on the other hand...why the F not throw a bulb in there!?

    If you just bought a stock bulb and put it in... You are missing the power and ground wires that need to be added to the stock harness plug.
