Instrument cluster question

hi all i hope someone can chime in...can anyone tell me if the instrument panel in the picture provided supposed to illuminate? I was driving home and just noticed it..
it is the icons that display (light up)if your headlights/parking lights are on its right below where you can adjust your side view mirrors...

i hope this link helps..

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure what the question is.. but here is what should happen:

The icons that show P<--> 0 Auto, P-, and low beam will not light up on a 2005-2007 car. You can't make them light up.

The small circles beside the dial are for the fog lights. If you turn the dial to the full right position to activate the low beam headlights and then pull the dial out one click, the front fog lights will come on and the top icon will light up. Pull it out a second click and the rear fog light will activate and the bottom icon will also light up.
