Default Is there a Trunk Light in the GS350?

I looked in the trunk of my GS350 when my car was parked in the garage and it looked pretty dark in there. I shut off the garage lights and the trunk was just as black as everything else.

Is there supposed to be a trunk light in this car? Every car I have ever owned, Hondas, Nissans, and my other Lexus had trunk lights, so I think this is pretty weird if they didn't include a trunk light.

If there is a trunk light can someone tell me where it's located so I can check it out?

Thanks

Never mind, I just found a Trunk Light switch in my trunk. I wonder why they thought they needed a switch for the Trunk Light?

same reason why they thought that small little light would light up all the way to the left side from the right side.

Keep that light switch always on. When you close the trunk, it will shut off automatically.

Yeah, I gathered that. That's why I thought it was weird that they put a switch in there too.

On the subject of lights. There seems to be a light in my glove box, but it's behind a panel, so it doesn't get too bright in there either.
Know anything about this? - I'll have to check it out in daylight.

The on/off switch is on the light (cover) itself. Right side of the trunk area.

Dies the front cover come off or we have to pull the housing out from the back? To get to the de3021 bulb?
