Both my switches glow whatever, even when keys arent in and lights arent on. Is this normal or does it need to be rewired?

Ciaran, yes you just pull the switch & its housing out of the centre console, then just pull the two apart.

lowgolf, im not sure about the lights glowing when the keys arent in the ignition, ill have to check

Lowgolf, the switches shouldn't glow with the keys out of the ignition, do glow when in (regardless of if lights are on), indicates a problem possibly at the ignition barrel, or maybe just wiried wrong.

Ciaran, if one light glows and the other doesn't probably a blown bulb in the one that doesn't when you switch them round you should be able to see for sure.

Fuses are inline thermal AFAIK.
