Interior Lights

There is a way. You must be electrically inclined, have a schematic (the easy part), buy some switches and stuff and have about 2 hours.

If I can locate the post, I'll put it here.

If you haven't been already, welcome to FTE...fellow member.

You can't be serious.


Here are the [link:forums.ford-diesel.com/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=UBB9&Number=720376&Sea rch=true&Forum=UBB9&Words=Interior%20lights&Match= Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Old=1year&Ma in=720376|instructions] that I told you about.

I will do this one day...I have to be motivated to spend an afternoon hacking up my wiring. Wish there was an easier way...

It'd be a lot easier to just pull the fuse!

just find out which wires from the fuse block go to the interior lights you wish to turn off when the doors are open and put a switch in there, not sure if thats what the other intructiosn were but if you could see which wires went were from the fuse block itd be hella easy
