How to set light on backfacing triangles?

I disabled cull facing glDisable(GL_CULL_FACE) to prevent 'holes' in a ..3ds mesh. Now the 'hole' triangles are drawn, but they appear black. Guess it's because normals are still pointing the wrong way.

How to draw backfacing triangles with correct lighting?
