Default What buttons are illuminated at night?

Hi everyone. Just got a 2006 s2000. Having a blast working on it. Since I like everything perfect, I have the following question:

Are the following buttons illuminated at night?
1. VSA lettering on actual button (not warning that appears on instrument cluster)
2. Rear defroster button
3. Cruise control buttons on steering wheel

Also, are the map light buttons and switch supposed to be black or gray?

Thanks much
F. Louis

Made me curious and my garage is dark enough to check my 2006 car. Pretty sure all switches and lights are as they were delivered from the factory.

On the main dash the VSA switch lettering is illuminated. (As is everything on either panel on the left and right sides of the main instrument cluster including the Start button.)

On the console the roof switch lettering is illuminated; the rear defogger is not.

Buttons on the steering wheel are not illuminated.

Dome/map light buttons and slide switch are black. Never paid any attention to them before.

HTH,

I know my rear defrost switch is illuminated. That is because I changed out the burned out bulb in it.

Looks like I need to pull the console and see why my rear defrost isn't illuminated. Nor is the hazards on my '06, just the roof.

Half of my bulbs were out, after replacing them, I Replaced the other half, because the new bulbs were exponentially brighter lol.
