The 97+ models do not have lights for the lighter or headlight switch strangely enough. My old 92 did. I had mine all apart replacing bulbs and there aren't even spots to put bulbs there. The rear defrost and rear wiper bulbs have to be spooled around a plastic base.

After having my 87 XJ for nearly a year now, I have finally got the time to make her go doorless. That was a fun couple hours after breaking 2 T40 torx bits and using nearly a full can of PB Blaster and nearly half a grinding wheel. Come to find out the rollpin in the lower hinge on my rear passenger door had rusted/seized up in the body-mounted hinge portion, which made for an interesting procedure of getting it loose. Was all smooth sailing with exception to that one hinge.
