Default Interior door lights...yes or no?

Do the interior red door lenses light up.... ever? It seems like I remember them lighting but now they don't...I could be mistaken. I checked the manual but no info on door lights. If they DO light, does anyone know which fuse controls them so I can check it.

TIA

I believe they are reflectors only.

Reflectors only!

Their other purpose in life is to hide the window adjustment mechanism.

Had mine out yesterday while I was Dynamatting the doors. If yours light up, your car is haunted (they are reflectors only)!

If you are talking about the ones right above the interior door handles, then yes mine do light up when my headlights are on. If I have to I will take a pic of it tonight.I think they look cool, and when people ride with me they never have to say "where's the door handle". I think that is what they're there for. The fuse on mine is the courtesy lights fuse (top left) in the main fuse panel on the pass. side of the dash.(15 amp)
Hope this helps

Bubba....just a heads up. You are in the C5 section. He as talking about the red reflector in the lower rear corner of the C5 door panel. C5 does not have the light about the door handle like the C4.

If you are talking about the ones on the lower part of the door panel, then no they do not light up. They are simply reflectors.
