That's what I was thinking. I have a Lombard that I was going to sell since I got this Pismo. Sounds like I can use the backlight from that. Do I need to find one of those manuals I am not allowed to ask about, or would common sense and care enable me to switch the backlights? I live in Memphis, TN.
