Default '94-'96 interior question...

On the later LT1 cars that have the white gauge/instrument backlighting, what color are the courtesy lights in the doors and center view mirror. I am refering to the lights that come on with the parking lights for seeing the door handle ans center console area.

Cool thanks. What about back lighting on the door stuff? White or orange?

Any reason why I couldn't install a later drivers door switch to get the express down feature?

The switch is the same other than the color of the actual buttons - if an express-down feature is present, it's likely to be in the BCM.

And all of the backlighting is the same in the 90-93 vs the 94-96 - it's just that the labels are white in daylight in 94-96. Nothing changed with regard to backlighting, with the exception of the seat controls, which were only backlit in 90-91.
