Make sure your interior light dimmer switch is turned on (turn right for brighter lights). Its a little *** located directly to the left side of the steering column. Its next to the trunk/gas buttom.

Why would he think they don't light up? First, how the (bleep) would you know what button to press in the dark, and second, everyone else's light up.
Sheeesh.....
