Search wrecking yards for exploders or rangers with the switches, your bound to come across some that will light.

I would check if you are getting power to the switch. I don't know how they get power (clockspring maybe??) but if the are all out on both sides it may not actually be the lights.

No , unfortunatley the bulbs fail at an incredible rate. I got some at a electronics supply house about 2 years ago, now their all gone from fixing freinds rigs and my own. The last time I checked at Ford they said "none avail." elect. parts house also was out.........Someone posted a LED up grade, that would be the way to go..........Or hit the junkyard.
