Back-lighted handlebar switches

[MPERL]

New to me 2001 CSC Trike. Are the handlebar switches suppose to be illuminated? I thought they were on my 1500. Went on 1st night time ride and wished the switched were lighted. Is there a setting I am missing? Thanks.

My 2012 Wing has all switches illuminated. However, seems to me that the pre 2006 models don't have lighted switches.

Don't know if this is what you're looking for, but there are illumination kits you can get to solve this problem:

There are other illumination kits also, don't know the specifics, you'll have to do some googling.

It was either 2004 or 2005 that they were unlit. After that Honda lit them except for the high beam switch. Rivco supposedly makes panels to illuminate the units.

Thanks, Mick

The Rivco looks like a winner.

2004 was the first year for 1800 illuminated switches. My '03 didn't have them, my '04 does.
