Hello...I have a 1968 Cutlass Convertible that has a courtesy light under the dash on the drivers side. Currently this light works as it should when the door is opened but has no protective lenses.
If this light does indeed have a lense...could someone send me a picture of what it looks like?
Thanks for the help in advance!!

it's a bare bulb mounted in the recessed strip on the underside of the dash metal, facing downward.

And there should be one on each side, not just the driver's side.

Thanks Joe - the drivers side bulb was missing and the (2) wires inside the socket kept touching and blowing the 25 amp fuse that controls the interior lighting.

Bulbs installed push the wires back down into the socket and keep them positioned away from each other - no dangling wires

It should have a bulb socket similar to this although I think this is actually one for the rear armrest courtesy lights:
