Question GS Sideview mirror controls

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the controls light up at night when the dash lights are on?? I just had my battery replaced today and noticed that the controls were in fact not lit up.

Are they supposed to be lit??? If so how can I change the bulb, assuming it's burnt out???

Thanks,
Blanco

Default light replacement

Ok, now I'm pretty sure my light is out. The question now is how to replace it. It's a '98 GS400. I don't currently have a shop manual so can someone explain to me how the procedure goes??

Thanks in advance,
Blanco

You might have to replace the whole unit. I would call the dealer.
