Overriding courtesy lights

Is there a way to shut off the courtesy lights when the doors are open ? Sometimes I'd like to open the back doors, but the lights everywhere stay on, worried about battery drain.

I want to do this too. The lights will automatically turn off in 30 min or so if that helps...

Put a switch on fuse #14 in the interior fuse panel. This will kill the interior lights, door dinger, and power windows. It's really useful for listening to the radio with the doors open. Just remember to put an inline fuse in one of the wires coming from the switch.
