Hi Amba.
Just to confirm what other members have said, I have just had a look at mine.
I have the 98 2.5 elite and the main lights switch does light up plus the front and rear fogs  "tell tale" on dash.

Try this link it will show you how to change the one bulb in the light switch cluster

Thanks Bruce.
Found link really usefull,,will have a look in my box of odds.n,ends as sure I have a new bulb..main question was do the actual fog light push switches illuminate as mine only seems to have a back light above the main headlight dial ..and yes the orange and green tell tale display in main dash dials so know actual lights are functioning

Right ..just removed switch with 2 old RAC cards and have found 1 bulb held in with a grey screw cap.Taken bulb out and with my eyesight seems to have a 0.5 watt 12 volt bulb.In my box of spares have found a similar fitting but with an orange holder and looks like bulb is 1 watt,so will fit that and see(excuse the pun) if the brightness improves and illuminates the 2 rocker switches for the fog lights.
Just for referrence is the correct size bulb 2 watt ?? if so does the base holder colour vary with wattage or just what is made.Also any idea if they are a Halfrauds purchase as do have a shop local
