Mine doesn't have a light.. which I though was a bit odd... are they not standard? Is it something that can be retrofitted (sorry to hijack!)

The parts are around £6 for the lot from Peugeot
30 seconds to fit.
If you don't have the wires, then you have to make your own

Can do.
It has the bulb included.
I just had a look on Servicebox, the switch, new from Peugeot is £3.33 inc VAT.
I'm going there tomorrow if you would like it. Part No is 6339 18
