Lighted Foglight Switch Repair?

I have an '88 IROC. The fog lights work fine, but the switch never lights.

Is it possible to replace the bulb so it lights again, or would I be better off replacing the otherwise functional switch? I'm one of those guys who really hate to have something that isn't 100%, if I can do something about it.

I don't think the pilot or illumination light is replaceable. Have you considered a new, aftermarket replacement?

Not a bad idea, but I'm unaware of anyone making new ones. Do you know of anyone who does?
