    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.

    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..
