I've never noticed it either... but apparently I have one of the "early" builds of '08 that actually has it!

I'm not sure when my car was built, but I purchased it in March.

Man, first the wart, then the hood light now the amber night light - what's next, two of the tail lights?

Funny, i have been on an old Farmall Cub Tractor forum where at least once a week someone asks what the two holes on the hood are for. (they are for oiling the generator, the hood does not open). Every site seems to have one or two things that get asked about every week.

Acutally I have been really wondering which was better, Z51 or F55????

It seems to take as many keystrokes to jump on a fella as it does to just answer. Uhm politely. How many of those same folks asked at least one "silly" question when they were new and still OVERFREAKINWHELMED by this car?

Default Now that I see this topic,
I did read about this light in the manual, but I have not seen ANY light coming from the supposed source (passenger sun visor). There IS a hole in the left sunvisor mount, but never seen any light emitted. Did it actually get discontinued at some point in the '08 model run?
