The trunk light is on the right side of the trunk (pass. side). It's kind of up where the tail-lamp is (on the inside). If you look under there, you should see it. If it is burnt out, you can buy a new unit (lamp and cover peice) for about $5 at the dealer. I did this... but I was doing it because I wired a 2nd trunk light on the other side of the trunk.
The pull-out switch is convenient though!
Hope this helps.
