Heater control box lighting

Well this is actualy 2 quwestions in one. I found a small light gauge grey wire dangling from the wire harness adjacent to the ignition switch heater control box. I spent some time searching here and found a wire diagram that shows a grey wire for a light in the heater control box...... can someone confirm this?
Also , where can I buy the light bulb holder for the instalation into that box where the controls are mounted????

Thank you.

Re: Heater control box lighting

If I'm not mistaken, the grey wire feeds the bulb in the back of the heater controls (on the dr. side behind the choices) - you might find the bulb and holder still there.
