Question Sill lights

In my RX400h, 2007 there are sill lights by back doors, but not by front doors. Is it wrong or is it right? I don't want to take them up in vain.

You should have the sill lights in the front as well. That means maybe the bulbs are busted.

Thanks Mandyfig.

I lifted up the plastic cover on driver side and found out that somebody had disconnected the cable contact. I reconocted it and now there is light. I'll do the same on passanger side when it is some warmer (in Stockholm). Don't want to break plastics. Just wondering why they are disconnected. I bought the car just three weeks ago.

I pull my sills very often, only thing I could think of is if you need to get into the kick panel or lower dash. I have a remote start I installed myself so if there are any hiccups, the sills come out. Definitely do it in warmer temps, the plastic gets brittle in colder weather.
