Default 80 Vette Consule Lights out

I have an 80 Vette, the radio and heater controls are not lite-up at night? The light works on the guages. I can't seem to find the bulb to replace? Where is it located?

Thanks for any help!

At the top center of the gauge cluster- it shines down on the Vent controls.

They either burned out or you blew a fuse, take your pick.
