Yeah, it is kinda strange. I was gonna go to work at it tonight, but its gotten dark and I live in a condo situation so I guess it will have to wait till tomorrow. Though I did go out and get all the bulbs. Im just gonna redo all of them on both sides. I happen to see three bonnevilles tonight, one a GXP. NONE of them had illuminated side markers in the rear. Intriguing situation.
It is amazing on how many are burned out. Good idea on replacing them all...that'* what I finally did, too. Got tired of removing it every couple of months to replace bulbs.
Your back end will look much better all lit up.

If you look closely from the outside (look from the side of the car) you may be able to see it. Being "anal retentive", if it is burned out - once you know that it is there, it will bother you until you replace it. 


EDIT: All better now! My rear corners now light

I don't think its really about being anal, I think most people would change out bulbs they knew were burnt out. But when GM fails to acknowledge their existance in the manual and since its such a pain to remove the back lamp assembly most people just overlook it. Maybe a Poll is in order....
