I see I have a trunk light in my 2001 SL1, I've seen it come on once and the bulb looks fine. Where is the switch for this thing? I've looked and can not find it.
Thanks in advance,
Wes

Probably it's a mercury switch inside the light assembly.
Actually the switch is in the latch. The decklid striker trips it.
Thank you very much!

I thought they banned mercury switches long ago.
I don't think they have been banned, but I think GM has moved to using switches integrated into the latch recently due to the environmental problems of disposing of those switches..
