I have a 93mtx and I have what looks like the little keyhole circle around the keyholes on the doors. However they don't work any ideas why they wouldnt?

They could be burnt out or more than likely the wiring that goes to them is unhooked or broken.

odds of both being burnt out and or wires broken off seems unlikly. Is there anyway to change the lights w/o taken the door panel off or do they get changed from the inside?

As far as I know there is no real way to change the bulb. It is molded into the the clear plastic illumination ring. The illumination ring car be removed from the lock cylinder but you will have to glue it all back together. Do you interior lights come on with you push a button on the keypad or pull up on a door handle? How about the keypad buttons, do they still light up?

yes all of it still lights up except for the keyhole lights.
