Default I'm still learning......found some lights hidden by sun visors?

I may have been looking in the wrong places but I can't seem to find any info in my manuals concerning the lights I 'discovered' that were hidden by the sun visors. I had moved to the visor to shield the sun coming in the side window and I see this light lens (white) in the ceiling. I have punched/press a bunch of buttons but can't seem to discover on how to turn them on (there is one on the passenger side too).

Can anyone shed some light on this? (pun intended)

It's possible these are the lights that come on when you pull the visor down to look at the mirror?

Slide the plastic door covering the mirror and the light will come on.

They are vanity lights and will turn on by sliding the cover like busurfer mentioned.

What an embarrassment. As if I have never had vanity lights before!!! I was punching/pressing everything I could think of ......... except sliding the mirror cover.

Too embarrassed to say anymore

And of course, it is discussed in the Owner's Manual:

That's okay, NorthGA. You're forgiven! I notice you're from North Georgia??? I was just up that way for vacation. We stayed in the Blairsville area. Such a beautiful place. Wish I could live there!
