Hey guys
today I was cleaning my seven in the garage and my light bulb in the garage went out when I pulled on the door handle of my se it was locked, I noticed the light for the ignition switch went on but as I was putting in the key in the lock I thought I saw a grren light , lite up from the lock on the door,, was I seeing things or is there a light in the door that turns on as well, and the light was just escaping from the lock,,,,,, Really confused, but it would be a nice idea,

 

i thought the FSM said there was one in there but i never looked.... maybe Doc knows!

 

My '84 SE has a red light that lights up the driver's side lock hole...Look in the book, it was a purchasable option. Works awesome for nighttime unlocks without scrathing the paint around the lock!

 

Some models do have a light ring around the ignition and driver's door keyholes.

 

My 84SE also has a light in the key hole, but I think it's green.

 

Well checked the FSM, sure those have a light Door lock cylinder light, mines green as well, My 9th RX-7 and the first time I've noticed that , go fiqure....Thanks guys

Wow that's weird, I just wired up that same light in my car, which never had it to begin with. I put in a green LED out of my friend's Civic (formerly a ricermobile, so they were everywhere, wired into everything) I wired it to come on when I put the parking lights on, looks good and stock.
