If they are burnt out, is that common since our cars are pretty old now?

If there is a switch ... where is the common place to install it (where should I look?)

Down by your drivers side headlights just below them with the clam shell up there is a two part spade fuse holder that fuses the two hood lights. Most owners pull the fuse and put the two parts back together so they can leave the hood up for a couple days. Check that, you probably don't have a 10 amp fuse in there. When you put a fuse in and open the hood the lights come on.
