I understand that it says 93/94 years on there. Anybody know if thats accurate? will it fit my 97? the left side does not light up anymore. I would need to change out the whole thing right? Or is it just a bulb. I'm thinking the whole thing. :)
whoops, forgot the link

I'm pretty sure the 93/94 don't light up at all. Just the years afterwards...

no they will not work, if you have a 97 and the on/off side doesnt light up anymore, you dont need to replace the switches themselves, the covers pop off the switches, and under them is a small pc electrical board where the lights are soldered to the board, the board unplugs from the switch with one small harness, you can swap another board in if you know the lights are good. i have some, but i'll have to check and make sure i have the on/off side if that indeed is the side you need. either way, i should have both sides. i will check tomorrow and make sure i have one.

I never knew that, I thought they were not serviceable. The Coast/Resume/Accelerate side of my 96 does not light up anymore. If ya got a good board that will work, drop me a pm.

the new switches are pretty cheap as far as that sort of thing goes, however they might be obsoleted now. I had mine replaced in 2005 and was surprised to be able to get the right color as I have that one-year-only 1998 interior trim color Midnight Black.
I took my old ones apart to see how it works, right. The lighting is LED just like the window and lock switches. You'd have to be an electrical engineer to service those...just my two cents.
