Dome light switch
I was wondering if when you turn the headlight switch to turn on the dome light if the switch completes the ground or supplies power to the dome?
I moved my dome light to door jam switches but got to thinking if it's the ground on the switch I could wire that in to then also have the interior lights on the doors and the switch. I can test it... but maybe someone knows off the top of their head. Thanks, Scott

Re: Dome light switch
I'll be doing this mod shortly:

Re: Dome light switch
For further clarification (if it's needed) the dome light has constant power. The ground at the headlight or door switch(es) completes the circuit illuminating the light.

Re: Dome light switch
Thanks for the info guys! Simple enough to wire in to my door jam switch setup then.
