Default Illuminated Scuff Plates Fiesta ST

Hey guys so I delivered a 09/13 Built Fiesta ST yesterday and it had really nice illuminated scuff plates from the factory, so then I checked out my Fiesta ST which is the same build and compliance and it doesn't have them, so then I call another two fellow ST owners from work and they don't have them either, can anybody shed some light on this, who else has illuminated scuff plates?

Or is this the case of the factory accidently installing them on the vehicle as in Europe there is a sports pack that comes complete with the grey alloys, red brake callipers and illuminated scuff plates.

Thanks

I was really looking forward to the illuminated scuff plates as I had seen in overseas versions... was a bit disappointed when I opened the door to find they weren't illuminated :(

Has anyone lifted the plates to see if there is wiring there?
Fair chance the looms are the same

Illuminated gear knob is pushing it lol, are the scuff plates different for the illuminated ones or is it just the addition of a light?

Both for WS/WT.

Cannot find anything for the ST. Think the scuff plates might fit, but the gear knob is missing a digit.
