Strange place for a light

[afieclipse5124]

I was cleaning out my car today, and I noticed after removing the cupholder/ashtray, there's a light on the left side corner it's completely covered when the cupholder is in it's place, but whats it for? Does it have to do with the transmission? I'm thinking maybe the car might have been an automatic at some point.

Er...

Your car was never an automatic and it has nothing to do with the transmission. If you turn on your interior lights, you'll notice that you have a light on both the ciggarette lighter as well as your money tray, which you had removed.

its the ashtray light. look at the ashtrey assembly, theres a little translucent square where the light would come in.

Put out your cigarette on a date's thigh some night, and hear why an illuminated ashtray is a good idea.
