Default Possiblebattery drain?

So Im sat in my car and it 's dark. I open the glove box and the light comes on as usual, and as I close the glove box slowly the light does not appear to go out, and I can't seem to find the switch in the glove box. I put my phone on video record and close the glove box, leave it a few seconds and take it out, the light did not go out.

Does anyone know where the switch is?

I know it's only a small bulb and maybe it goes off when the car shuts down after 40 mins or so, but I still want to fix the switch.

Thanks

The switch is contained in the glovebox lamp itself. I just can't remember exactly what activates it.

Cheers,

It looks like too much trouble to try to fix it, I'll just leavethe bulb out, iI have a cd changer on there anyway, so no room for anything more than my touch.
