Funny enough I was sitting in my Cinq yesterday waiting for my mum to get the shopping... and I thought the window switchs look like they should light up but they dont? So I pulled them out and there is bulbs in there but they dont work (not burn out tho?)
Anyway the bulbs are green... well white but have little green jonnys on them. ;)

yep, I had to replace mine when I got my cinq, the bulbs were normal ones of that type with a green rubber over them, when I took one to the car shop they just gave me replacements that were green in colour and no rubber bit, think they were about 30p each
 
Just after my message I went to halfrauds to see if they had any there. and they do! there about 1.40 each. Code is 286G. seem better then the ones with jonnys on as there painted so the bulb wont get as hot and should last a lot longer.

ALSO I noticed the look simular to some kinds of christmas tree lights! so you may be able to get them in all kinds of festive colours and maybe even flashing LOL
 
Update* Or you could replace them all with wide angle LEDS like i did today! Tried loads of colours (orange, yellow, white, warm white, green, blue) Ended up with blue as everyone seemed to like it (NOT 100% sure myself)
Just got to do the electric window switchs!
