inner door handle lights

Post by Ryoken » Sun Aug 10, 2014 10:39 pm

today, I thought id have a go at fixing my inner passenger door panel as I've loads of clips broke.
turns out one they were broke due to one of my expandable nuts disappearing close to the inner handle .so getting a new one tmoro the silly question is.......
there is a bulb going into the inside door handle, (now I didn't know there were bulbs here as none of them work on any of the doors),
A. when do they light up?
B. any one know what bulb they are so I can buy more?

ive looked on real oem , but cant find anything on these

Hi they are fused with the door handles & if you don't disconnect them when removing the door panels the connectors break off only realised this as fitted 2 new door mechs

I removed them before I took the panels off. they were just twist connectors, with really small bulbs on?
