Default 2010 RX450h - Is there a Glovebox Light?

Hi All!
Tried to find some documents from the glovebox tonight, and low and behold...no light??
Is my glovebox lamp burnt out, or is there no light in there?

It's there but just a tiny LED light. If you look carefully at night you can find it but illumination is week. It's one of those things most of us would like a better design on but the car is so perfect in most ways, it's easy to ding the little stuff.

Thanks for the info. I did not think that the glove box had a light.

Found out that the center cubby compartment under the flip up arm rest also has a similar illumination setup to the glovebox compartment. Pretty handy, actually!
