'99 EX 4-door - illuminated buttons...

Call me a moron but I've had this car since new and can't remember if the cluster of three buttons below the CD player (recirc, A/C, and rear defrost) are supposed to light up when the parking or headlights are on. I don't mean the light that comes on when the button is depressed, I mean the whole button.

Right now only the far right button lights up when the headlights are on and the button is not depressed, but I can't recall if it was always like this. Seems kinda un-Honda-like for only one of the three to be illuminated, but it also seems pretty unlikely that two burned out at the same time.

Anyone?

Pull the switch set out, you should find tiny light bulbs in the back. Maybe 2 bulbs?
