Yes they are suppse to light up. And here's a tip for those of you thinking of shaving them. Not exactly the type of mod you can do at home despite how easy it looks.
Let me explain. We here in florida enjoy the benefits of constant temperature all year round, so cheating on body mods is easy and possible. If you guys decide to use body filler to shave the hole instead of welding with plastic, what you come to find is that bondo, fiberglass and plastic have different expansion and contraction temperatures. This becomes a factor in the winter months when your cars are cold. The uneven expansion and contraction of the materials can lead to cracking and bubbling.
So while we have a bunch of DIY'ers in this group some things are better left to those that know these things .. like proffessionals. Remember it takes twice as much to fix a mistake you made trying to save half a much.
Laterz..

Ooooo I didn't know about the expansion and contraction. Good thing I didn't do it myself.
