Power mirror switch fix



The illumination on the power mirror switch had been out on my '92 100S for
some time now. Since the switch still operated fine, so I hated to pay over
$50 for a new one. So I took it apart to see what made it lite up. It turned
out to be 2 little bulbs soldered into the circuit board in the switch. I went
to Radio Shack, and purchased a pack of 2 "micro lamps," (12V, 60mA). After
removing the old lamps, I soldered the new ones in, and voila, it worked.
Total cost = $1.60 (with tax). Probably been done by another listmember
before, but just thought I'd share my little cheap fix. Now if I could just
figure out how to replace the bulbs in that damn seat heater switch :-).
