Saab Repair: interior lighting, window buttons, climate control


Question
I just bought a '88 9000S that is immaculate inside and out. I noticed however that not all of the switches and buttons are illuminated at night (window controls in the middle console and the climate control buttons just above the stereo). I know the window buttons must have all been illuminated originally because one of the four still is. Since this is my first Saab, I'm not sure about the other buttons.

The car came with all the original manuals but I can't seem to figure it out. Are these bulbs I can replace myself?  

Answer
Unfortunately no. The lights are an integral part of the switch, and to get the lights working, the switches must be replaced. I find the car to be ergonomically well laid out, and after driving it for a while your hand will just naturally fall to where the switches are. I have several burnt out myself. I have no intention of fixing them!
