Calling all FB Parts car owners

I have messaged numerous people parting out cars with no response.

The Heater controls on my 83 are completely dark and with winter here, most of the time it is dark while I am in the car. Although I can work the controls by feel and memory, The wife is not so happy with it. It sure would be nice to have it illuminated.

While installing the stereo, I noticed what appears to be a place to mount a lamp holder on the plate behind the heater controls, but I can't find anything that looks to fit at the parts store and junked FBs are very rare in this part of the world.

1) is there supposed to be a lamp behind the controls?
2) does anyone have the lamp, holder and harness that they would part with?

PM me, email or post here if possible.

Thanks much.
